Mr. Coughlan
asked the Minister for Agriculture if he is aware of the widespread disquiet at the outflow of milk of up to 3 per cent from some co-operatives in the north west region; and if he will take immediate action to curtail this development.
Arising from the milk cessation scheme — to which it is assumed the Deputy is referring — no co-operative in the north west region will have its quota reduced by more than 1 per cent. This situation is not disproportionate in comparison with co-operatives in other parts of the country.
