The person named has submitted an application under the 2015 National Reserve. Processing of applications is underway which involves administrative and on farm checks and verification of land details submitted under the 2015 Basic Payment Scheme application. These checks are required under EU Regulations. In cases where additional information is required my Department will correspond directly with the applicant concerned. When all checks have been completed and processing of applications has been finalised, my Department will correspond directly with each applicant to advise them of the outcome of their application.

Payments to successful applicants under the National Reserve will commence early in December 2015.
