The person named was approved for participation in the 2012 Agri Environment Options Scheme (AEOS 3) with effect from the 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 the 2013 Scheme year and 75% payment will issue shortly. The balancing 25% payment will issue thereafter.
