An application under 2014 Single Payment/Disadvantaged Areas Schemes was received from the person named on 28 April 2014. However, as the person named has not established entitlements under the Single Payment Scheme there is no payment due to the applicant under that Scheme. In order to be eligible for payment under the Disadvantaged Areas Scheme, applicants must meet the eligibility criteria of the Scheme including meeting the minimum stocking density requirement of 0.15 livestock units per hectare. As the person named did not meet the minimum stocking density requirement, he is not eligible for payment under the Scheme.
