As processing of the 2012 Disadvantaged Areas Scheme application has recently been finalised, payment will shortly issue to the nominated bank account. Payment had not issued previously as the holding concerned was only recently confirmed as having satisfied the scheme minimum stocking density requirements. An exercise to take account of December 2012 data, which was recently completed, established the definitive position of the holding of the person named.

As the holding of the person named has not yet been confirmed as having satisfied the scheme minimum stocking density requirements, my Department has been in direct contact with the person named. Arising from this, the applicant is due to submit further documentation, immediately on receipt of which the application will then be progressed.
