Payments under the 2013 Disadvantaged Areas Scheme have commenced and while an application under the 2013 Disadvantaged Areas Scheme was received from the person named on 15 May 2013, payment will not be issuing in the initial payment runs as, at this stage, the holding of the person named has not yet satisfied the Scheme minimum stocking density requirements.

Immediately the holding concerned is confirmed as having met these requirements, the case will be further processed with a view to payment at the earliest possible date thereafter.
