Abstract

The principal Regulations provide for payment of aid to farmers who undertake for five years to permit members of the public to have access to an area of set-aside land. They implement in part Council Directive (EC) No. 2078/92 on agricultural production methods compatible with the requirements for protection of the environment and maintenance of the countryside. The new section here added provides that the Minister shall not accept any application for aid in respect of any period beginning on or after 15th January 2000. This amendment has no effect in relation to any producer whose application for aid in respect of any year preceding 15 January 2000 has already been accepted.
