An application for consideration under the 2017 Basic Payment Scheme (BPS) and Areas of Natural Constraints Scheme (ANC) was received from the above person named on 20 April 2017.

An issue has arisen with regard to grazing rights on a number of the land parcels declared on the BPS and ANC application of the person named.  The processing of the application cannot be completed until this outstanding issue is resolved.

My Department is liaising on an ongoing basis with the solicitor of the person named above with a view to resolving the land issue.
