An application for participation in the 2021 Basic Payment Scheme (BPS) scheme was received from the person named on 21st April 2021.

The area claimed on the land parcel in question was greater than the maximum eligible area for this parcel. The photos submitted by the applicant did not provide sufficient information to clarify the position in relation to the maximum eligible area. My Department is arranging for a rapid field visit of the parcel to clarify the position on the ground. This will be done as quickly as possible.
