The person named commenced their AEOS contract on 1 September 2010 and has been paid in full for the 2010-2014 scheme years.

Under the EU Regulations governing the Scheme and other area-based payment schemes, a comprehensive administrative check, including cross-checks with the Land Parcel Identification System must be carried out. As 2015 is the final year of payment, re-checks on payments made for all scheme years must be completed before final payment can be processed.

These checks have been completed in respect of the person named and payment will issue shortly.
