Vol. 316 No. 6

Ceisteanna—Questions Oral Answers. - EEC Skim Milk Powder Subsidy.

34.

asked the Minister for Agriculture if the EEC subsidies, at present suspended for denaturing skim milk powder for animal feeding, are likely to be in operation again next spring.

The special schemes to provide skimmed milk powder at reduced prices for animal feed, other than calf feed, were suspended by the EEC Commission from 23 October because of the tight supply situation for skimmed powder. Their re-introduction will be considered by the Commission next spring in consultation with the Milk Management Committee in the light of the Community market situation at that time.
