The National Audit Office (NAO) has today published an update on the reports by the NAO and Committee of Public Accounts on the early progress of the Common Agricultural Policy Delivery Programme.
It focuses primarily on Basic Payment Scheme payments to English farmers and landowners. These make up around 80% of the total payments made under CAP and it was the Rural Payment Authority’s priority to develop the functionality to make these payments.
The Committee of Public Accounts is scheduled to take evidence on this report.
