I propose to take Questions Nos. 245 to 247, inclusive, together.

Commonage Management Plans are a core requirement for participants with a commonage GLAS action, within the GLAS scheme. I would encourage any GLAS applicant with outstanding obligations, such as the finalisation of a Commonage Management Plan to speak to their Advisor and ensure that this work is completed as a priority. Without the submission of all the required information, these applicants will remain ineligible for further GLAS payments. A number of cases remain ineligible for payment as the GLAS participant and/or their Advisor need to take action.

Attached is the requested breakdown of commonage information in tabular form.

Herds with active commonage:
