The person named applied for premium on seven animals under the 2003 suckler cow premium scheme. While processing the application for payment it was found that according to CMMS records, one of these animals bearing tag number 181850810049 was not in the ownership and possession of the herd owner on 27 June 2003, that being the date of his application. Correspondence regarding this matter issued to the person named on 16 September 2003 and details of a formal decision to reject the animal were notified to him on 6 November 2003. At that time he was given the opportunity to appeal the decision. The herd owner did not request an appeal and so the application was processed on the basis of six eligible animals and one rejected animal.
