My Department is continuing to work through various legal and other issues regarding the position of those who have applied for compensation but do not appear to fulfil the qualifying criteria of the cessation of turf cutting compensation scheme for a variety of reasons. Applicants are being, or will be, written to in relation to their position, as issues are clarified.
