As part of a review of land parcels declared for the purposes of benefiting from payment under the Single Payment Scheme and other area-based Direct Payment Schemes, the person named was written to by my Department in April 2011 with regard to ineligible areas on one of their land parcels declared for the scheme years 2009 and 2010 which had given rise to overpayments in both the scheme years 2009 and 2010.

Following a complete review of the circumstances of this case, the penalty applied to each of the scheme years 2009 and 2010 has been reduced by 90% and refunds will shortly issue to the person named.

Question No. 172 answered with Question No. 168.
