    Just my view on Lee’s original post.

    It matters not that the land is not farmed by the owner provided that “it is a parcel of rateable land valued as one assessment and its dominant use is for farming….” and the other elements of S515 are met.

    Without more information its impossible to determine if those other elements could be satisfied but the La Vie ruling (thanks Adele) indicates it probably doesn’t with 30 head of cattle but “…each matter must be dealt with on its facts and circumstances”.

    Carla,
    I’d be asking for the LLS return also (thanks again Adele), stock movement records and stock trading account as pertains to the 2 parcels in question. Its up to the applicant to provide what they think is appropriate to support their application – we can’t insist on anything but can only consider what they provide.
