The person named was approved for participation in the 2011 Agri-Environment Options Scheme with effect from the 1 September 2011 and full payment has issued in respect of the 2011 Scheme year. There were issues identified in relation to the Traditional Stonewall Maintenance and Laying of Hedgerows actions during an on-the-spot inspection. The application is currently being processed on the basis of the inspection findings and payment for 2012 will issue shortly. Payment for 2013 will follow as soon as possible thereafter.
