Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine

The person named submitted a 2016 Transfer of Entitlements application to my Department seeking the transfer of entitlements by lease as Transferor.  This transfer has now been finalised and payment under the Basic Payment Scheme 2016 will issue shortly.
