The 2016 Basic Payment Scheme application for the herd number referenced was submitted online on 12 May 2016. Article 16 of regulation 809/2014 places an absolute obligation on beneficiaries to correct pre-established forms at the time of submission of the application and Article 15 provides for amendments to the application up to 31 May annually.
The GLAS 3 online application system created a profile holdings based on the information and land parcels submitted within the regulatory period outlined above and only these parcels were made available for the selection of GLAS actions. In this case as the parcel in question was not submitted as part of the 2016 BPS application for the person named it was not available for selection for an application for GLAS 3.
