Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine

An application under the 2015 Basic Payment Scheme was received in my Department from the person named on 29 May 2015. Full payments due to date under the Scheme have issued to the nominated bank account of the person named. The advance payment issued in October 2015 and a balancing payment issued in December. A further final balancing payment will issue to applicants who qualify for such payment, following the definitive allocation of entitlements over the coming weeks.
