The person named submitted an application under the ‘Old Young Farmer’ category of the 2015 National Reserve to my Department. Records held by my Department indicate that the person named commenced farming in 2007. On this basis the person named did not meet the eligibility criteria under the National Reserve ‘Old Young Farmer’ category and the application was not successful. The applicant was notified of this decision and was offered the opportunity to submit an appeal. My Department has now received an appeal from the person named in relation to their National Reserve application. This appeal will be considered by my Department based on the information set out by the applicant and a decision with regard to the outcome of the appeal will be notified in writing to the applicant within the next ten days.
