Basic Payment Scheme: guidance

If you intend to take part in the Basic Payment Scheme you must read this guidance carefully and make sure you understand the requirements of the scheme.


33. Direct Payments ceiling

The Scottish Government has been granted a maximum budget by the European Commission for the Basic Payment Scheme and other Direct Payments.

If, when all these payments have been calculated, we find we have exceeded the budget, we may have to scale back all payments. If we need to do this, we will provide further information with your payment advice letter.
