My Department does not keep records of land eligibility inspections on the basis requested by the Deputy.

Land eligibility inspections undertaken under the various area-based schemes involve the examination of all land types, including lowland and hill land, that are declared by applicants who are selected for an inspection. Records are not maintained on the basis of specific land types.
