Written answers

To be eligible under the 2013 Grassland Sheep Scheme, as per the Terms & Conditions, applicants were required in their own right to fulfil a number of conditions, including Section 23 (iv) which provides that applicants under the Scheme must have submitted a 2012 Sheep Census Return by the deadline of 11 March 2013 detailing the number of sheep maintained on the holding. As the person named did not submit a 2012 Sheep Census, no payment is due under the 2013 Grassland Sheep Scheme.
