Regulation 6 fixes the date on which parcels used to claim under the Single Payment Scheme must be at the disposal of farmers.
Regulation 7 provides that the transfer of payment entitlements must be communicated by the transferor to the relevant competent authority within the time limits specified.
Regulation 8 specifies the additional modulation deductions which will be made from direct payments payable to farmers.
Regulation 9 revokes the Common Agricultural Policy Single Payment and Support Schemes (Northern Ireland) Regulations 2005 and its amendments.
