My Department received a 2015 Private Contract Clause application from the person named seeking the transfer of land and entitlements by lease as Lessor. My Department has been in correspondence with the person named in relation to issues regarding leased parcels that have prevented the processing of his application. Officials from my Department are working to resolve these issues with a view to having the application processed to facilitate payment under the Basic Payment Scheme as soon as possible.

My Department has also received an application for the 2015 Young Farmers Scheme under the herd number shown. Once payment under the Basic Payment Scheme has issued, this application can be finalised with a view to payment shortly thereafter.
