Administrative / biographical background:

In 2001 the current Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) Schemes Management Division was reorganised to allow for the launch of the new CAP Paying Agency the Rural Payments Agency. A new CAP Schemes Policy Division was created and was part of the Agriculture and Food Industry Directorate. The series deals with the administration of Integrated Administration and Control System (IACS) which was established by Council Regulation as a key element of the MacSharry CAP reform of 1992. The IACS was designed as an anti-fraud and expenditure control system, originally made up of a data base with an alpha numeric identification system for fields or parcels of land, it also had a system for recording animals and an integrated system for claims. From January 2005 the parcel identification system became spatial with the use of GIS.
