An application under the 2013 Single Payment Scheme/Disadvantaged Areas Scheme was received from the person named on 19 April 2013. While processing the application an over-claim was identified in respect of one parcel declared by the person named. The person named has been notified of the over-claim and of his right of appeal. To date no appeal has been received. As the person named has a determined area of greater than 34 hectares the Disadvantaged Areas Scheme payment will shortly issue to the person named without any reduction penalty. Also the 50% advance payment under the Single Farm Payment Scheme will commence on 16 October and I expect that payment will issue to the person named on that date subject to a reduction penalty of between 3 and 20% based on the area determined.
