The person named submitted an application under the 2013 Single Payment/Disadvantaged Areas Schemes on 23 April 2013. During the 2013 LPIS Review, two land parcels were deemed to be over-claimed by the applicant. The over-claim, which amounted to 0.69 hectares, resulted in the establishment of an over-payment of €183.40. The over-claim had no imp act on the €2,468.10 paid to the person named under the 2013 Disadvantaged Areas Scheme.

The person named appealed the decision and an official of my Department visited his holding to carry out a verification check. The check has now been completed and the file is undergoing the final processing stages. An official of my Department will shortly make direct contact with the person named to inform him of the outcome of the appeal.
