[32425/16]
View answerAn application under the Basic Payment Scheme (BPS) and Areas of Natural Constraints (ANC) Scheme was received from the person named on 14 May 2016. Payment under ANC has issued directly to the nominated bank account of the person named on 20 October 2016.
The person named also submitted a 2016 Transfer of Entitlements application to my Department seeking the transfer of entitlements by way of sale as Transferee. This application is currently being processed by my Department and when completed the person named will be advised in writing of the outcome and payment under the Basic Payment Scheme will issue shortly thereafter.
