Basic Payment Scheme new entrant assessments in 2018 : FOI Release

Information requested

The number of new entrants applicants who had their entitlement value assessed and rectified in 2018, broken down by parliamentary region.

Response

There have been 2 new entrant applicants who had their entitlement values reassessed in 2018, both are in the Highlands and Islands parliamentary region.

We consider an entitlement allocation to have been assessed and rectified where the business already held Basic Payment Scheme entitlements prior to the application to the National Reserve and these entitlements have been increased in value by that successful application.
