The current processing year figures are subject to fluctuation as applications are investigated and found to be either eligible or ineligible. You’ll be aware that under EU rules, only claims which have been fully checked and validated can be paid. For certain customers, with more complex situations such as claims that have been made on historic land parcels or entitlements or for cross-border businesses, it will take longer to process their payments. Some customers who are subject to inspections that have shown a breach of scheme rules, may also have to rectify these before payments can be made. We will continue to make progress with processing these outstanding claims.
