The applicant concerned failed to meet the minimum score as set out in the Green Low-carbon Agri-environment Scheme (GLAS) Terms and Conditions. The applicant’s Advisor appealed this decision on their behalf, claiming a clerical error when entering their application.

My Department officials have replied to this appeal, to both the Advisor and the applicant, upholding the original decision on the application. The person now has the option of appealing to the Agriculture Appeals Office or submitting an application for GLAS Tranche 2.
