In thi. Co.-i •• ion document of July 1983. it wa. e.timated that in order to

off.et fully the additional expenditure likely to ari.e fro. the auarantee

thre.ho1d beina exceeded. the milk price for 1984/85 would have to be

abated by a. much a. l~. Thi. would have had •• riou. and i ... diat.

effect. on the revenue. of producer. while there would be .cae delay before

the full effect on production wa. achieved. a delay which could not be

reconciled with the financial imperative. facina the Community.

Por the.e rea.on •• the Commi •• ion concluded that the principle of the

auarantee thre.ho1d in the milk .ector .hou1d be implemented throuah a

quota .y.tem accompanied by a re.trictive price policy. In the.e initial

July propo.al., it wa. made clear that reference quanti tie. or quota ••

corre.pondina to the concept of the suarantee thre.ho1d. would be

e.tabli.hed for each dairy. ba.ed on deliverie. in 1981, and that all

deliverie. in exce •• of thi. quantity would be .ubject to a .upp1e .. ntary

levy de.ianed to cover the full co.t. of di.po.a1 of the additional milk.

The.e initial propo.a1 •• which were followed by preci.e propo.al. in the

form of draft resu1ation. in September 1983 (1). were the .ubject of

inten.e di.cu •• ion. amona.t the Community in.titution. and the

.ocio-profe •• iona1 sroup. concerned durina the remainder of 1983 and the

openins month. of 1984 and formed the ba.i. for revi.ed propo.a1. (2) on

which the Council finally took it. deci.ion. of 31 Karch 1984 introducins a

quota and .uper-1evy .y.tem in the milk .ector.

3. Choice of reference year

The majority of ... ber State. have cho.en to ba.e the determination ot

reterence ~uantitie. tor producer. or purcha.er. on milk deliverie. durins

the 1983 calendar year, adju.ted by a percentaSe. Creece and Luxembours,

however, are to e.tabli.h reterence ~uantitie. on the ba.i. ot deliverie.

in 1981.

4. Yariation. in the dete~ination of reterence 9yantitie. accordinl to

catelorY ot producer or resion

a) 81 ,ile catelorY ot producer

In calculatins reterence ~uantitie. tor individual producer. or

purcha.er., Belsium. Cermany and Ireland have ditferentiated the

percentase applied to deliverie. in 1983, accordins to the volume ot

milk delivered by the producer8 concerned.

In Belsium. the reterence ~uantitie. tor milk producer8 dependent upon

dairyins tor a .ub.tantial part ot tarm income and who deliver Ie ••

than 60,000 litre. a year are calculated on the ba.i. ot a .maller

percentase deduction than tor other producer •.

In Ireland, ~he reterence quan~I~le. tor purcha.er. are ba.ed on 1983

deliverie. plu. an amount or percentase which di.tinsui.he. between

producer. deliverins more or le •• than 15,000 sallon. a year

<approximately 68,000 litre.). Thi •• hould en.ure that in compari.on

with 1983, the reference ~uantitie. tor purcha.er. with the sreate.t

number ot 8mall producer. are h1sher than tho.e e.tabli.hed tor

purcha.er. where larser producer. predominate.
