The person named applied for the 2012 Suckler Welfare Scheme on 2 March 2012 as a new entrant. However, the person named had beef breed animals born in his herd in 2011 and, therefore, should have applied for the Scheme in 2011. The application for 2012 was deemed ineligible and the person named was notified of the position in a letter dated 18th May 2012. The person named sought a review of this decision, the matter was re-considered by my Department and the applicant was deemed eligible to participate in the 2012 Scheme.
