I propose to take Questions Nos. 953 and 954 together.

My Department is currently examining land parcels declared for the purposes of benefiting from payment under the Single Payment Scheme and other area-based Direct Payment Schemes. As part of this review a number of ineligible features were identified in parcels submitted in the application of the person named. My Department will now review the basis for this original decision and will be in direct contact with the person named.
