The person named is an applicant under the 2012 Single Payment Scheme. In order to comply with EU requirements, the application was one of a number which was selected for inspection. Arising from this, an over-claim was confirmed and accordingly a reduced advance payment issued on 15 November. The applicant is due to receive the balancing payment under the Single Payment Scheme on 1st December and, since the full penalty was deducted from the advance payment, this will not be subject to any further deduction.
