View answerThe person named submitted two 2015 Transfer of Allocation Right and Reference Value applications to my Department. All details relating to land parcel details for 2013 and 2015 and Single Payment entitlement values from 2014 have to be reconciled in order to process these applications. The applications are currently being processed with a view to payment under the Basic Payment Scheme issuing shortly.

Once payment under the Basic Payment Scheme has been made, the applications to the National Reserve and the Young Farmers Scheme will be finalised with a view to payment issuing as soon as possible thereafter.
