The person named submitted a 2015 Basic Payment/Areas of Natural Constraint Scheme application on 15 April 2015.

The application of the person named was selected for a Remote Sensing eligibility inspection. This inspection has now been completed and the results have been finalised.

Payments due under the Basic Payment Scheme and Areas of Natural Constraint scheme issued to the nominated bank account of the person named on 30 October 2015 and 2 November respectively.
