The Milk Quota Appeals Tribunal considers all valid applications for additional milk quota submitted on the grounds of hardship. Applicants recommended for approval by the Tribunal are allocated milk quota from the National Reserve, and the amounts involved can vary depending on individual circumstances. There is no overall fixed pool of quota assigned for allocation.
