An application was received from the person named requesting the transfer of 15.68 entitlements by way of lease to another farmer.

As the person named had successfully applied to consolidate his entitlements in 2005, the entitlements in question acquired the status of 'National Reserve' entitlements. National Reserve Entitlements (including Consolidated entitlements) may not, except in the case of inheritance or gift, be transferred for a period of five years.
