The person named submitted a 2016 Basic Payment/Areas of Natural Constraints Scheme application on 5 May 2016. EU Regulations governing the administration of these schemes require that full and comprehensive administrative checks, including in some cases Remote Sensing (i.e. satellite) inspections, be completed before any payments issue.
The application of the person named was selected for a Remote Sensing eligibility inspection. This inspection is currently being processed with the intention of issuing any payments due as soon as possible. In the event that any queries arise officials in my Department will be in contact with the person named.
Payment due under the 2015 Areas of Natural Constraints Scheme issued to the nominated bank account of the person named on 2 November 2015.
