ObjectionI do not recommend this application be approved.; I was unable to confirm the applicant's status as a farmer or active farmer under the definition set out in Government Circular GC_1508 or that of the applicant's status as a registered cattle keeper.; The proposed 20m x 20m agricultural shed is simply not large enough to meet the minimum usable space to support 80 cows with 25 of them due to have calves at foot by spring.
