The specific procedures for appeals under the rural environment protection scheme include an initial appeal to my Department's local office and the right of appeal to the agriculture appeals office. The initial appeal in this case was unsuccessful. The Department of Agriculture and Food has written to the person in question informing him of the decision and advising him of his right to make a further appeal to the agriculture appeals office, which is statutorily independent of my Department.
