Written answers

The person named submitted a Private Contract Clause application to my Department seeking the transfer of land and entitlements by lease as Transferee. The Private Contract Clause application has been fully processed and payment under the Basic Payment Scheme will issue shortly.

The person named also submitted applications under the National Reserve and the Young Farmers Scheme. Once payment under the Basic Payment Scheme has been made the applications under the National Reserve and the Young Farmers Scheme will be finalised with a view to payment shortly thereafter.
