| Synopsis: |
In October 2006, the National Audit Office report "The Delays in Administering the 2005 Single Payment Scheme in England (HC 1631)" (ISBN 0102943397) looked at the problems in administering the 2005 single payments scheme in England.This report follows up by examining the progress made in resolving outstanding problems from 2005 and processing 2006 payments. The report concludes that the new management team has instilled a clearer sense of direction and that virtually all of the outstanding 2005 payments were made by the end of December 2006.However, the Rural Payments Agency has identified 34,499 cases where there might be errors in the original calculations and the review of most of these cases will be completed by the end of 2007. In the interim, errors in payments in the first year were likely to have been repeated in the second year and the Agency was not able to administer the 2006 single payments scheme in a fully cost-effective manner. |
