Regulation 11 Amounts of aid and claims

Subject to regulations 5(3), 10(5) and 13(2), payment of aid to a beneficiary shall be by way of five payments made annually, in arrear.

The amount of each such payment shall be £25 multiplied by the figure calculated in accordance with paragraph (3) below.

The figure referred to in paragraph (2) above is the number equal to the difference between the reference flock and the greatest number of ewes which may be kept on the beneficiary’s production unit or common grazing without the beneficiary failing to comply with the undertaking in regulation 3(a)(i).

The rate of payment specified in paragraph (2) above may be reviewed by the Secretary of State from time to time.

A claim for each annual payment under paragraph (1) above shall be made at such time and in such form and shall contain such information as the Secretary of State reasonably may require.
