Beneficiaries under the Agri-Environmental Options Scheme (AEOS) may make a case to withdraw from the scheme for reasons beyond their control under the Force Majeureprovision as set out in Section 19 of the Terms and Conditions of the scheme. However, the Department does not have any record of a request from the person named to withdraw from the scheme. If the person named wishes to withdraw from the scheme and believes that they are entitled to the benefits of the Force Majeureprovision, they, or their representative, should inform the AEOS section Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine, Johnstown Castle Estate, Co. Wexford in writing. Medical and any other evidence to support the application must accompany the request. My officials will then examine the case on its merits in light of the documentation submitted.
