The person named submitted an application for the 2015 Basic Payment Scheme which was received in the Department on 29 May 2015.

The original and subsequent maps submitted on behalf of the person named are insufficient to allow completion of the processing of the application to a stage where payment can issue. An Official from my Department has been in contact on a numberof occasions in recent days with the Agricultural Consultant of the person named in an effort to resolve the outstanding issues.

The person named submitted applications under the 2015 National Reserve and the Young Farmers Scheme to my Department.  Payments under the National Reserve and Young Farmers Scheme commenced in mid-December and as publicised at that time will continue into January/February. The applications received from the person named have been finalised and payment is expected to issue shortly.
