Additional requirements for Category C
In addition to the above requirements, for a licence to be endorsed for Category C weapons you must also provide:
Proof that the applicant has a significant feral animal/vermin infestation problem on their property and other methods of eradication such as use of Category A and B firearm or baiting have proven unsuccessful
A statement of how long you have owned/occupied the property and, if you do not reside on the property, how often you attend it; and
Details of any other Category C licence holders on the property.
and other methods of eradication such as use of Category A and B firearm or baiting have proven unsuccessful

Or the number of rifles at all for that matter.
I ask as "his situation" shouldn't matter and while he's a LAFO he shouldn't be able to be knocked back (to the best of my knowledge).
