A review of the land parcels declared by the person named revealed that some ineligible areas had been declared – farm roadway, farm building – which reduced the eligible area for Scheme payment purposes by 0.19 hectares, resulting in an overpayment of €19.02, which was recouped from the DAS payment which issued on 23 September; the full payment due was €3,349.03, which when the overpayment of €19.02 was offset, resulted in a net payment of €3,330.01 issuing directly to the nominated bank account of the person named.
