In particular, in paragraph 4, which deals with consultation, the Executive note states that the consequence of the waiver of the headage limit of 90 animals per age bracket"may lead to an increase in animals claimed and thus increase the likelihood of a breach of the regional ceiling".That is coupled with the introduction of a derogation to"exempt the small producer (who claims 30 animals per year or less)".I would appreciate further information from the Executive about how the regulations will impact on farmers in general.
