Questions referred
1. |
Is Article 42(1) of Council Regulation (EC) No 1698/2005 (1) (‘Regulation No 1698/2005’) — also taking into account Article 46 — to be interpreted as not wholly precluding individuals from aid for the sustainable use of forest land where the land is also partly State owned? |
2. |
If aid is not wholly precluded, is Article 46 of Regulation No 1698/2005 to be interpreted as meaning that, in relation to the land concerned — which is partly State owned — the private forester or private owner is entitled to aid in proportion to his share of ownership? |
