A review of the land parcels declared by the person named under the 2013 Single Payment Scheme (SPS) revealed that a number of the land parcels declared by the person named contained ineligible features. Following an appeal from the person named, a visit by a Department official to verify the position was necessary to progress the matter. The person named was notified of the outcome of the inspection in a letter issued to the applicant on 25 September 2014. The findings of the verification visit were processed and the additional 2013 SPS payment due was paid on 24 March 2015 and the additional 2014 SPS payment due was paid on 1 April 2015.
