Applications under the 2013 Single Payment Scheme and Transfer of Entitlements under this Scheme were received from the person named in my Department on 26 April 2013. One of the conditions of the Schemes requires that an applicant be a registered herdowner or have applied to the local District Veterinary Office for a herdnumber on or before 15 May 2013. The person named was notified on 24 March 2014 that the herdnumber of her deceased husband was assigned to her. Her application under the Transfer of Entitlements Schemes was approved on 11 April 2014 and it is expected that payment will issue in the near future.
