The person named was approved for participation in the Agri-Environment Options Scheme with effect from 1st September 2010 and full payment totalling €662.82 has issued in respect of 2010.
Under the EU Regulations governing the Scheme and other area-based payment schemes, a comprehensive administrative check, including cross-checks with the Land Parcel Identification System and checks on capital investment claim forms had to be completed before any 2011 payment could issue. During these checks a number of queries were identified in relation to the capital expenditure claim of the person named. My Department has issued a query letter to the person named regarding this matter and will process the application further upon receipt of a response to these queries.
