The person named applied to lease his entire quota under the milk quota temporary leasing scheme 2004-05. His entire quota amounted to 109,105 litres, of which 21,808 litres had been allocated from the national reserve under various measures. As allocations from the national reserve are not eligible for temporary leasing, the maximum which the producer is entitled to offer to the 2004-05 scheme is 87,297 litres. Accordingly, the permission granted related to this amount.
