My Department received a Transfer of Entitlement Allocation Right and Reference Value application from the persons named to transfer allocations and values by change of registration of herd number from the second person named to both persons named. The Basic Payment Scheme application had been submitted in the name of the second person before the herd number was changed on 30th June 2015 into joint names held by both persons named. In the circumstances it was necessary for my Department to align both applications to reflect the change to the herd number so that processing could proceed. This work has now been completed, the application can be processed and payment will issue as soon as possible.

The person named submitted a 2015 Transfer of Allocation Right and Reference Value application to my Department. All details relating to land parcel details for 2013 and 2015 and Single payment entitlement values for 2014 had to be reconciled in order to process this application. This application has now been fully processed and payment under the Basic Payment Scheme is due to issue shortly. The person named also submitted applications under the National Reserve and the Young Farmers Scheme to my Department. Once payment under the Basic Payment Scheme has been made, the applications to the National Reserve and the Young Farmers Scheme will be processed with a view to payment issuing soon thereafter.
