Sustainable Farming Incentive
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, whether his Department plans to review the consistency of Sustainable Farming Incentive application decisions made after the scheme was closed.
Answered by Dame Angela Eagle
We do not propose to review decisions. We clearly set out the rationale for the reopened Sustainable Farming Incentive scheme. The Rural Payments Agency wrote to all those applicants who were eligible to apply. We worked with stakeholders and partner organisations to ensure transparency of approach and decision making.
