The person named submitted a 2015 Private Contract Clause application to my Department seeking the transfer of land and entitlements by lease as Transferee to the Company name shown. As the person named was not farming in 2013 he did not hold an allocation right into the Basic Payment Scheme. In May 2014 my Department had issued a letter to the Company to advise them to transfer the allocation rights from the person named to the Company name. The documents required to transfer the allocation right into the Company name were not received by my Department until 1 February 2016. The allocation right has now been transferred across to the Company name, the Private Contract Clause application has been fully processed and the outstanding payment under the Basic Payment Scheme will be made shortly.
