An application for the 2018 Areas of Natural Constraints (ANC) scheme was received from the person named on 11th May 2018. The person named has not demonstrated to date that he has met the minimum stocking requirements as set out in the 2018 scheme terms and conditions. These requirements must be met before payment can issue under the scheme.

An appeal submitted on behalf of the person named by his agricultural advisor was received by my Department on 4th November 2020. A member of staff of my Department has been in contact with the agricultural advisor on foot of the appeal and has requested additional supporting documentation regarding the stock held by the person named during the relevant period. The application will be reviewed once the additional supporting documentation has been received.
