There has been no delay in payment in this case. The person-named was issued with approval for Dairy Equipment investments, including cluster units, a plate cooler and a bulk tank, on 11 December 2015. This case was amongst those which received priority attention due to the urgency of getting the necessary equipment in place. The applicant has full approval to proceed on these items.

In due course, I would expect that a claim for payment will be submitted and when that is received, it will be processed for payment in the normal fashion.
