The person named was one of a number of applicants under the Disadvantaged Areas Scheme, whose cases are impacted by the requirement of a minimum stocking density of 0.3 livestock units per forage hectare in 2011 and who applied for derogation in this regard. The person named subsequently submitted additional information to my Department, which, following review, did not provide sufficient reasons to accept the application. The person named has previously been notified of this outcome in writing and advised of the option to appeal to the Office of the Ombudsman should he so wish.
