Minister for Agriculture and Food (Mary Coughlan)

An application for the Transfer of Entitlements under the 2006 Single Payment Scheme to the person named was submitted on 11 December 2006. During processing of the Transfer application, it was necessary for an official of my Department to request specific documentation relating to the application. Upon receipt of the requested documentation my Department will process the application and will correspond directly with the person named. However, I have arranged for an official of my Department to make direct contact with the person named regarding this matter.
