The Land in Care Scheme (Tir Gofal) (Wales) Regulations 1999
These Regulations, which apply to Wales, contain the provisions of a new agri-environment scheme implementing in part a zonal programme approved by the European Commission under Article 7 of Council Regulation (EEC) No. 2078/92 (OJ No. L215, 30.7.92, p. 85) on agricultural production methods compatible with the requirements for the protection of the environment and the maintenance of the countryside. The new agri-environment scheme, which replaces existing agri-environment schemes applying to Wales, is entitled the Land in Care Scheme or Tir Gofal (which Welsh term means land which is in the care of any person who has an interest in it).
