Regulation 10 Termination of undertakings

Within a period of three years from the commencement of the set-aside period, a beneficiary may terminate the undertakings given by him under regulations 3 or 12 in relation to all the land on his holding to which those undertakings relate, provided that the termination shall not take effect before the expiry of that three-year period.

A beneficiary shall notify the appropriate Minister at least three months before the expiry of the three-year period referred to in paragraph (1) of his intention to terminate the undertakings and the notification shall be made in such form and shall contain such information relating to the termination as that Minister reasonably may require.

In paragraphs (1) and (2) above, references to the beneficiary shall include the personal representatives of that beneficiary where he has died.

Where a beneficiary has terminated his undertakings under the provisions of paragraph (1) above, the appropriate Minister shall not, within two years of the termination, accept an application from that beneficiary for aid under these Regulations in relation to any land to which those undertakings relate.
