Abstract

The principal changes made by these Regulations: (a) extend the definition of "Community compensation scheme" to include an offer of compensation to certain producers of milk and milk products temporarily restricted in carrying out their trade (reg. 3(a)); (b) clarify the extent and application of particular milk-quota arrangements applying in the Scottish Islands (reg. 4); (c) extend the period within which purchasers shall notify the Intervention Board of any producers newly registering with them (reg.5); (d) make clear who, as between an original purchaser and a new purchaser of a producer's milk, is permitted to apply for adjustments to his quota consequent upon subsequent changes to the representative fat content of that producer's milk (reg. 5(c)); (e) remove the requirement which applied in the case of a transfer of quota made without there being a transfer of land that, after the transfer has been approved by the Intervention Board, the transferee furnishes the Board with a statement of used and unused quota available to both him and the transferor on the date of transfer; (f) extend the Intervention Board's ability to release a transferee from his undertaking (reg. 6(d)); (g) clarify the basis on which temporary allocations of surplus quota may be made (reg. 7(a)); (h) remove certain producers from the category of producers eligible to receive a temporary reallocation of surplus quota (reg. 7); (i) enable the Intervention Board, in specified circumstances, to release that producer from a restriction that would otherwise prevent him from transferring out quota of the type to which he has converted in the same quota year as the one in which that conversion took place (reg. 8); and (j) make some amendments relating to record keeping and offences.
