An application under the 2015 Basic Payment/Areas of Natural Constraints (ANC) Scheme was received from the persons named on 13 May 2015. Payment under the ANC scheme has issued to the nominated bank account of the person named. The persons named submitted 2015 Transfer of Allocation Right and Reference Value and Private Contract Clause applications to my Department. As the herd number is now held jointly by both persons named it was necessary to have the Private Contract Clause application signed by both persons on the herd number. The amended application was received by my Department and is currently being processed with a view to payment under the Basic Payment Scheme issuing as soon as possible.
The second person named has also submitted applications under the National Reserve and the Young Farmers Scheme to my Department. Once payment under the Basic Payment Scheme has been made, the applications submitted by the second person named will be finalised with a view to payment as soon as possible thereafter.
