The person named submitted an application under the Young Farmer's Capital Investment Scheme of TAMS II on 28 September 2016, under tranche 4. All applications received in a given tranche must be checked to ensure that all administrative issues are in order. Once this process is complete a ranking and selection is carried out and all eligible applications within the available tranche budget are sent to the local office for final technical appraisal before approvals issue. It should be noted that the submission of an application under a TAMS II measure does not mean automatic approval. Processing of applications received under tranche 3 is underway and processing of applications under Tranche 4 will be begin shortly.
