The person named submitted a Private Contract Clause application to my Department seeking the transfer of land and entitlements by lease as Transferee. Issues regarding the eligibility of a small area within one land parcel prevented this application from being processed. An official from my Department has spoken to the person named and agreed to process the application excluding this small land parcel in order to facilitate payment under the Basic Payment Scheme. Once the eligibility of the small land parcel is resolved payment on foot of this land parcel will follow. With the agreement of the person named this application has now been processed on the basis outlined and payment under the Basic Payment Scheme will issue shortly.
