289. To ask the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine if, under the single payment scheme 2015, there will be an appropriate box to indicate lands being grazed by a farmer, including commonage, for which there is no ownership title in the farmer's name, but on which the farmer has grazing rights, as the current forms indicate to declare lands as owned, rented or leased only.

Applicants should declare the land parcels being grazed as owned/rented/leased in column 8 of the 2015 Basic Payment Scheme application form. It is not necessary to change the current provisions. If an applicant wishes to submit details relating to grazing rights where he/she does not own, rent or lease the land he/she should do so when applying on-line or by submitting a cover letter with his/her 2015 Basic Payment Scheme application form.
