I wish to advise the Deputy that the number outstanding agriculture payments for BISS, ANC and ACRES is set out in the table below.

Scheme Number of outstanding payments
BISS 661
ANC 930
ACRES 387

There are currently 120,463 potentially eligible BISS applicants, of which 119, 802 have received payment. The majority of the 661 unpaid herds for BISS and 930 unpaid herds for ANC are cases where the applicant has not yet provided the required documents to support their claim. In other cases, the applicant has not fulfilled certain obligations, for example stocking rate under Active Farmer provisions.
