Written answers

The application by the person named under the native woodland element of the Afforestation Grant and Premium Scheme is still under consideration in my Department. On 8 April 2016 my Department wrote to the registered forester representing the applicant requesting that the application be revised to exclude certain unsuitable areas. Once this revised application is received the matter will be considered further.
