A review of the land parcels declared by the person named under the 2013 Single Payment Scheme revealed that a number of the land parcels declared by the person named contained ineligible features. The over-claims identified represented a reduction of between 3% and 20% of the area declared by the person named. While the total financial penalty imposed under the Disadvantaged Area Scheme is €196.33, none of this sum has yet been recouped. The person named was notified of this decision and of his right of appeal. To date no such appeal has been received. It remains open to the person named to appeal, should he so wish.
