The person named applied for the Single Payment/ Disadvantaged Areas Schemes on 11 thApril 2014. Processing of the applications has recently been finalised. Minor overclaims were discovered on two land parcels declared by the person named. As these overclaims were less than 3% no penalty was applicable and payments have recently issued for both schemes based on the Department’s determined area.

The person named submitted a 2014 Single Payment /Disadvantaged Areas scheme application on 29 April 2014. Payment has not yet issued to the person named as, at this stage, the holding concerned has not yet satisfied the Scheme minimum stocking density requirements. Immediately the holding concerned is confirmed as having met these requirements, the case will be further processed with a view to payment issuing to the person named at the earliest possible date thereafter, provided all other Scheme requirements have been satisfied.
