The person named submitted an application for the 2015 Basic Payment Scheme which was received in the Department on 27 May 2015. The application was processed with payments issuing to the nominated bank account of the person named in December 2015 and February 2016. To complete the full processing of this application, the person named was requested to submit commonage evidence for a particular land parcel. The person named submitted a lease agreement to substantiate their claim. However, on examination of the documentation submitted, some issues were identified .

An official from my Department will be in direct contact with the person named to clarify the outstanding matters. Should these matters be resolved, the application will be further processed. Consideration for an allocation from the National Reserve will be considered as part of this process.
