This review will provide an independent, practical assessment of the bureaucratic burden on family farms in Wales. It aims to reduce unnecessary bureaucracy and complexity, while retaining our high standards. The scope of the review is set out in the Terms of Reference. The only costs associated with the review are those of the Chair, who will be remunerated at a rate in line with agreed Welsh Government practices.
