§ Mr. Alfred MorrisTo ask the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food whether it remains his intention, as stated in the House on 7 June 1984,Official Report, column 430, and 5 July 1981, Official Report, column 452, that imports of New Zealand butter shall not be taken into account by the EEC in determining the United Kingdom's milk production quota.
§ Mr. Donald ThompsonNational reference quantities were based on delivery and sales levels in member states and took no account of imports. That remains the position. 1 am not aware of any proposals to change this basis.
