The person named was approved for participation in the 2011 Agri-Environment Options Scheme with effect from the 1 September 2011 and full entitlements have issued in respect of the 2011 and 2012 Scheme years. During a 2013 inspection, the person named was found to have non-compliances in respect of the Traditional Hay Meadow and Coppicing of Hedgerow actions. A letter issued to the person named notifying them of the inspection findings and setting out the appeal option. As no appeal was received, officials in my Department are processing the application based on the inspection findings and I expect 75% payment in respect of 2013 to issue shortly. The balancing 25% payment will follow on.
