View answerA review of the land parcels declared by the person named under the 2013 Single Payment Scheme revealed that a number of land parcels declared by the person named contained ineligible features. Following an appeal from the person named a visit by a Department official to verify the position was necessary to progress the matter. The person named was supplied with new maps when notified of the outcome of this inspection in a letter dated 5 January 2015 and advised of the right of appeal to the independently-chaired LPIS Appeals Committee. The results of the verification visit have now been processed and payment due for 2013 Single Payment Scheme will issue to the person named shortly.
