The person named was approved into GLAS 1 with a contract commencement date of 1 October 2015 and has received full entitlements in respect of the 2015 scheme year.

Department records show that following a Cross Compliance inspection under the Basic Payment Scheme a penalty was applied on the holding of the person named.  Under the regulations the same level of penalty must now be applied to the GLAS payment.  Officials in my Department are finalising the payment calculations to take account of the Cross Compliance penalty with a view to issuing payment.
