Applications for a Registered Farm Partnership (RFP) are accepted and processed by the Department all year round.

However, if an applicant wished to have their RFP number in time for the 2025 Basic Income Support for Sustainability deadline, applications with all accompanying documentation must have been received by the Department on or before Monday, 10 February 2025.

There was an issue with the application referred to by the Deputy and the applicant has now provided the outstanding information required.

I can confirm that the RFP number has now issued to the applicant and the RFP will now be placed on the Department's Register of Farm Partnerships.
