Question:535 Mr. Cowen asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and Forestry the steps, if any, he will take for dairy farmers denied their usual annual leased quota from co-ops in 1995 due to the effect of private quota levying; if his attention has been drawn to the number of small and medium-sized dairy farmers who have exceeded their own quota and the superlevy payments being imposed on these farmers from now to April; the circumstances under which farmers may appeal under the milk quota appeals tribunal; and if he will make a statement outlining the scale and nature of this problem; the number of farmers affected; and the proposals, if any, he has to remedy this matter.
