Amharc ar fhreagraThe person named commenced their AEOS 2 contract on 1 September 2011. Payment issued in respect of the 2011-2015 Scheme years.
Under the EU Regulations governing the Scheme and other area-based payment schemes, a comprehensive administrative check, including cross-checks with the Land Parcel Identification System must take place. As 2016 is the final scheme year of payment for the person named, rechecks on payments made for all scheme years must be completed before final payment can be processed. This process is ongoing and payments are issued on a weekly basis as cases are finalised.
