Written Answers. - Grant Payments.
Under supplementary measure A – Conservation of Natural Heritage of the REP scheme payment may only be made in respect of commonage land which was declared for area aid in 1997 or 1998 or, in the case of farmers with less than 15 livestock units who have not made an area aid application, where evidence is provided that in those years they farmed the commonage.
Unfortunately, it is not possible to deviate from these conditions.
