Single Payment Scheme and Miscellaneous Direct Support Schemes (Appeals) (Wales) Regulations 2004 No. 2919 (W. 258)

Summary:

These Regulations enable the National Assembly for Wales ("the National Assembly") to establish an appeals procedure for farmers who dispute decisions taken by it in connection with its administration of the Single Payment Scheme and various other direct support schemes, namely, those schemes concerned with protein crop premium, area payment for nuts, aid for energy crops, aid for starch potato, dairy premium (and additional payments) and seed aid. These schemes are introduced by, and operate under, Council Regulation (EC) No. 1782/2003 (O.J. L270, 21.10.2003, p.1), Commission Regulation (EC) No. 2237/2003 (O.J. No. L339, 24.12.2003, p.52), Commission Regulation (EC) No. 795/2004 (O.J. No. L141, 30.4.2004, p.1) and Commission Regulation (EC) No. 796/2004 (O.J. No. L141, 30.4.2004, p.18). Any appeal procedure so established may take the form of oral or written submission to persons appointed by the National Assembly with a view to such persons making a recommendation to the National Assembly as to how the matter should be finally determined. The Regulations confer power upon the National Assembly to pay remuneration and allowances to any such persons appointed and to charge a fee (not exceeding �100), in respect of the costs of the procedure.
