The person named submitted applications to my Department under the ‘young farmer’ category of the 2015 National Reserve and the Young Farmers Scheme. The processing of these applications involves administrative checks and verification of land details submitted under the 2015 Basic Payment Scheme application. These checks are required under the EU Regulations pertaining to the scheme. All such checks are currently being finalised and payment under the National Reserve and Young farmer scheme will issue to the person named very shortly.
