5.—(1) The Minister shall not accept an application in relation to any land unless, after consultation with the relevant coastal defence authority or authorities, she is satisfied that the establishment of salt-marsh, including any associated setting back inland of coastal defences on or adjacent to that land, is consistent with the provision of effective and sustainable coastal defence.
(2) The Minister shall not accept an application in relation to any land which is occupied by a tenant unless she is satisfied that the tenant has obtained the consent in writing of the landlord of that land to the making of the application.
(3) The Minister may refuse to accept an application in relation to any land where she is satisfied that—
(a)the management of that land with the objective of establishing an area of salt-marsh would frustrate the purposes of any assistance previously given or to be given out of money provided by Parliament or the European Community; or
(b)the payment of aid under these Regulations in relation to that land would duplicate any assistance given or to be given out of money provided by Parliament or by the European Community.
