I propose to take Questions Nos. 536 and 537 together.
As there is no record of receipt of an application from the person named under 2012 Single Payment Scheme/ Disadvantaged Areas Scheme, no payments are due to the person named under these Schemes. The person named was advised accordingly by letter dated 13 March 2013 and advised of his right of appeal to the Agriculture Appeals Office, should he so wish.
The 50% advance payment under the 2013 Single Payment Scheme issued on 16 October 2013 and the balancing payment issuing on 2 December 2013, both payments issuing directly to the nominated bank account of the person named.
The payment in respect of the 2013 Disadvantaged Areas Scheme, which issued to the person named on 21 October 2013, was in respect of the eligible claimed areas as listed on the application form of the person named, in respect of areas in Derrynagran, Cashel Beg and Commons South, minus an area of less than one hectare which was deemed ineligible.
