Application for the grant at issue was received on 9 June 1982. Farmers may qualify for grant aid at "Other High" rate for a period not exceeding six years and as this applicant had completed six years in that category, the local farm development service office has to await a communication from ACOT regarding reassessment. When this comes to hand the application will be processed without delay.
