Nitrate Sensitive Areas (Amendment) Regulations 1995 (S.I. No. 1708 of 1995).
The principal Regulations allow the Minister of Agriculture to make payments of aid to farmers in nitrate sensitive areas who undertake to manage their land in accordance with a "basic scheme", "a premium arable scheme" or a "premium grass scheme". These Regulations add areas covered by a now repealed Order (S.I. 1990/1187) to the list of nitrate sensitive areas. Furthermore they expand the criteria of eligibility of land for aid which was included in the 1990 Order.
