The GLAS 2 contract of the person named was selected for an on-farm inspection on 6 July 2022 and notification of the inspection findings issued to the person named by letter dated 23 August 2022. The GLAS contract was rejected as a result of this inspection. This letter gave the person named the option of appealing this decision with the Regional Inspector.
