119 Mr. Hilliard asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and Forestry if he will allow photocopied maps for application for area aid, as the majority of ordnance survey and land registry maps are photocopies in any case.
My Department needs to have confidence in the accuracy of any maps submitted for area aid purposes. They need to be legible and true to scale which unofficial photocopies frequently are not. For these reasons, official Ordnance Survey or Land Registry maps are required.
