The Milk Quota Trading Scheme was the main mechanism for the transfer of quota between milk producers. The sixteenth and final stage of the Scheme had a closing date of 7thFebruary 2014 and the results were announced on 31 March 2014.

I am informed that the named person was not successful with his application to purchase additional quota because there was no quota offered for sale at his Co-operative’s exchange.

Details regarding the outcome of individual applications have been sent to the Co-operatives for issue to its participating suppliers.
