The person named submitted an application under the 2015 Basic Payment Scheme on 10 April 2015.

Entitlements are allocated to a herd owner in 2015 under the Basic Payment Scheme based on the number of eligible hectares the farmer declares in either 2013 or 2015, whichever is lesser. As the person named had 100% penalty in 2013, no entitlement to Basic Payment Scheme entitlements ensues. An Official from my Department will contact the person named to advise them of this situation and their options to appeal.
