The person named submitted an application under the Basic Payment Scheme on 6 May, 2015. In the application, the person named increased their eligible area on two land parcels on the basis of work carried out after the Department’s inspection on 28 January.

The declared increase in eligible areas has been accepted by my Department, and the processing of this application has been finalised. The advance and balancing payment under the Basic Payment Scheme have now issued, and the payment resulting from the overpayment in the 2013 Single Payment Scheme has been deducted from that payment.
