I have made no decision on the price of quota for the 2005 restructuring scheme. In December, when I announced the price for the 2004 scheme, I stated that I considered that it would be inappropriate to fix a price for 2005 at that remove. There have not been any developments in the meantime which would require any different decision. I indicated at that time that quota sold after 2004 would not include the value of the new decoupled dairy premium and this would have to be reflected in a substantial reduction in the price of quota at that time.
