The contract specified was approved under the Afforestation Grant and Premium Scheme with two grant payments and 20 annual premiums to be paid across the lifetime of the contract. The first and second grant payments were made in 2000 and 2004 respectively.  Twenty annual premiums were paid between 2000 and 2019 to the beneficiary of the contract, with the last premium payment having been paid in April 2019.

The contract is therefore complete and no further payments are due.
