The person named is an applicant under the 2012 Single Payment and Disadvantaged Areas Schemes. In order to comply with EU requirements, the application was one of a number which was selected for inspection. Following the completion of the inspection and related processes, an over-claim of in excess of 50% was confirmed. A letter issued on 22nd November to the person concerned outlining how the over-claim arose and explaining the appeals procedure in place. While no appeal has been received to date, this option remains open to the applicant.
