The principal Regulations provide for payment of aid to farmers who undertake for five years to permit members of the public to have access to an area of set-aside land. They implement in part Council Directive (EC) No. 2078/92 on agricultural production methods compatible with the requirements for protection of the environment and maintenance of the countryside. The new provision added by these Regulations concerns the closing date for applications for aid: "The Secretary of State shall not make a payment of aid under these Regulations in relation to land in Wales unless an application for aid under regulation 5 in relation to such land is received by him before 11th May 1999".
