EU Regulations governing the administration of the Single Farm Payment and Disadvantaged Areas’ schemes require that full and comprehensive administrative checks, including in some cases Remote Sensing (i.e. satellite) inspections, be completed before any payments issue. The person named in the 1st case submitted a 2014 Single Farm Payment/Disadvantaged Areas’ scheme application on 15 May 2014. This application was selected for a Remote Sensing eligibility inspection. This inspection is currently being finalised with the intention of issuing any payment due as soon as possible. In the event that any queries arise officials in my Department will be in contact with the person named.
The person named in the 2nd case submitted a 2014 Single Farm Payment/Disadvantaged Areas’ scheme on 29 April 2014. This application was selected for a Remote Sensing eligibility inspection. Initial processing of this inspection identified a requirement to verify the eligibility of a parcel of land by means of a field inspection. The results of this inspection are now being finalised with the intention of issuing any payment due as soon as possible. In the event that any queries arise officials in my Department will be in contact with the person named.
