To date almost 8,000 applications have been created on the GLAS 3 online system.  The breakdown of the information requested by the Deputy will not be available until after the scheme closing date at which time all applications will be assessed.

Given the large volume of applications being created applicants would again be encouraged to adopt actions that will promote them from Tier 3 to a higher tier, thus increasing their chances of selection into the scheme.
