All applications for schemes such as the Basic Payment Scheme are subject to the standard range of verification checks as required under the relevant EU legislation.  As part of this process, my Department issues letters to applicants where issues such as potential overclaims arise.  In such cases, it remains open to all applicants to respond to the identification of overclaims etc, and to provide any supporting information that may be relevant. 

All such appeals, including those within the area referenced by the Deputy, are dealt with on a case-by-case basis.  My Department has received some correspondence in this regard in relation to the issues raised, and the new information provided is currently being reviewed in accordance with the standard practices.
