The current position is that Commonage Management Plans have to be completed by the end of September in order for farmers to be paid their 2016 GLAS payments. As part of the delivery of these plans we have had to focus first on walking the commonages to identify the habitats present, their condition, the stock carrying capacity and the issues that potentially affect eligibility for future payments. This process is now in its final stages and we hope to have it completed by the end of August. We have already begun holding meetings with the farmers on individual commonages and this aspect of the process will accelerate in September.
As sheep farmers face particular challenges in adjusting their flock sizes we are prioritising fieldwork on these sites. It is our intention to have fieldwork completed on most sheep commonages this week. The Dept. of Agriculture have issued approval to us for an additional six commonages last week and we expect several more approvals in late August. These additional sites include several important sheep commonages however we are confident that they too can be completed by the end of August.
Our advisors are continuing to make good progress on the fieldwork underpinning the Commonage Management Planning process. Details of our progress to date can be see on the table below
