View answerThe number of commonages to which planners were assigned and subsequently reassigned is 255. A total of 571 GLAS participants are associated with these commonages. My Department has put in place arrangements to facilitate payments for these participants to ensure payments are processed as promptly as possible. A further 77 commonages in this category are currently being reassessed.
