The person named submitted an application under the 2012 Single Payment cheme on 13 April 2012. During the processing of the application, an issue arose regarding an over-claim on a specific parcel and a letter issued to the applicant on 26 October 2012 advising him of this. The person named replied on 5 November 2012 confirming the reduced area and the application was processed on this basis. A further letter issued to the applicant on 8 November 2012 advising him that payment would be reduced accordingly. The person named has since submitted further correspondence seeking a review of the reduced payment and this is currently under consideration.
