Abstract

These Regulations implement Commission Regulation (EC) No. 1750/1999 which prescribes detailed rules for the application of Council Regulation (EC) No. 1257/1999 on support for rural development from the European Agricultural Guidance and Guarantee Fund. The Regulations provide for payments of aid to be made to any person who enters into an undertaking with the Scottish Ministers to comply with the general environmental requirements set out in Schedule 1 to the Regulations and to carry out, or as the case may be, to carry out and maintain, at least one of either the management activities set out in Schedule 2 or the capital activities set out in Schedule 3 (regs. 3 and 9). The Scottish Ministers may also contribute to the costs incurred by an applicant in preparing a conservation audit and, as the case may be, a moorland management plan included in an application for aid (regs. 3(4) and 8(4)). The Regulations also make provision as to the form and content of applications for aid (reg. 4), in respect of applications for aid from common grazings committees (reg. 5), and other matters relating to aid.
