The person named had submitted a request under the Freedom of Information Act for the names of the people who have claimed ‘Area Aid payments’ on the land referred to. This request was refused on the basis that third party information in relation to Single Payment/Disadvantaged Area scheme applications cannot be released under the Freedom of Information Act. The person was advised by letter of this on 20th September 2012 and also of the appeal procedure. My Department has also recently been in contact with the person to further outline the position.
