Officials in my Department have examined the case of 2014 Single Payment Scheme application of the person named. As the parcel in question was afforested in 2014 and has been deemed eligible for aid under the Afforestation Scheme it can be considered as eligible land under the 2014 Single Payment Scheme. My Department is now arranging to update the 2014 Single Payment Scheme application of the person named to reflect this position. On completion of this process arrangements will be made to cancel the previously notified debt.
