My Department received a 2015 Private Contract Clause application and a 2015 Transfer of Allocation Right and Reference Value application from the person named. The applications have been processed and payments due under the Basic Payment Scheme will issue shortly. An application under the 2015 Young Farmers Scheme was received from the person named on 29th May 2015. Processing of these 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, the Department will correspond directly with the applicant concerned.

When all checks have been completed and processing of applications has been finalised, the Department will correspond directly with each applicant to advise them of the outcome of their application. Payments to successful applicants under the Young Farmers Scheme will commence early in December 2015.
