HC Deb 14 February 1985 vol 73 c255W
17. Mr. Steen

asked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food to what extent it will be possible to ensure that small dairy farmers will be able to produce up to their 1983 level of output.

Mr. Jopling

My intention is that part of the quota bought up under the outgoers scheme will be reallocated so as to restore small producers whose final quota is 200,000 litres or less to their base year level of production. For most of them this will be their 1983 level.
