The person named submitted an application for allocation of entitlements under the ‘Scottish Derogation’ measure of the 2015 Basic Payment Scheme. EU Regulations governing the Basic Payment Scheme require administrative and on farm checks and verification of land details submitted under the scheme. These checks are now being finalised for the person named and my Department will correspond directly with him in the coming days in relation to his Scottish Derogation application.
