Written answers

Processing of the application in respect of the person named under the 2013 Single Payment Scheme / Disadvantaged Area Scheme has recently been completed. This revealed over-claims in respect of five of the land parcels declared by the person named. A letter explaining the situation and maps of the relevant land parcels will shortly issue to the person named; this letter will also detail how the person named can seek a review of this decision. In the meantime, payments will issue to the nominated bank account of the person named on the revised eligible area. Should the person named appeal the decision regarding the over-claims and should that appeal be successful, then supplementary payments will, of course, be made.
