757.

The cattle headage scheme was EU-funded and, following the introduction of compulsory electronic payment to bank accounts in 2008, any funds relating to earlier payable orders that remained un-cashed after a maximum 6 year period were, on the direction of the EU Commission, surrendered back to the EU.  

It is not possible, therefore, to reissue such payments in this case.
