The person named was approved for participation in the Agri-Environment Options Scheme with effect from 1st November 2010. Under the EU Regulations governing the Scheme and other area-based payment schemes, a comprehensive administrative check, including cross-checks with the Land Parcel Identification System, must be completed before any payment can issue. During these checks a query arose in relation to the re-digitisation of land parcels for AEOS purposes. This particular problem is now being addressed with a view to issuing payment as quickly as possible. In the event of any further queries arising, my Department will be in direct contact with the person named.
