Table 2 – No. of participants and withdrawals
- | Knowledge Transfer Scheme | GLAS | Beef Data and Genomics Programme | TAMS II | Sheep Welfare Scheme | Hen Harrier Programme |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Number of active participants | 19,100 | 49,269 | 24,748 | 10,509 | 20,325 | 567 |
Number of applicants that have withdrawn | 260 | 2,566* | 7,038** | 338 | 836 | 0 |
*Data includes both withdrawn and rejected applications because the system does not differentiate between those categories. Also, some double counting may occur as individuals who moved tranche could be recorded as both active in the latter tranche but withdrawn/rejected in the former tranche.
**Data includes 859 participants excluded from the scheme because of issues relating to non-completion of training and Carbon Navigator requirements.
