The person named was approved for participation in the Agri-Environment Options Scheme (AEOS 3) with effect from 1stMay 2013.
Under the EU Regulations governing the Scheme and other area-based payment schemes, a comprehensive administrative check, including cross-checks with the Land Parcel Identification System, must be completed before any payment can issue. These checks have been successfully completed in respect of 2013 and 75% payment issued to the person named on 7thMay 2014. The balancing 25% payment will follow.
