"to oppose EU legislation in general and the CAP in particular. However in an area of current EU competence we would reluctantly support a measure that was unambiguously in the interest of a sector of the UK economy. To oppose it because we are opposed to EU membership would be to betray the interests of our fellow-nationals.
Nearly all UK milk producers already have written contracts, although it must be said that they do not generally meet the standards stipulated in this milk package. Dairy farmers do need to be able to cooperate on a sufficient scale to confront the cartel of milk buyers, to which they sell their milk, without fear of investigation by the competition authorities. The gap between farm-gate prices and retail prices must be narrowed. We are concerned about the abolition of milk quotas, which might lead to the competitive dumping of milk from one Member State to another.
The recommendation for improving transparency is limited to collating the volume of raw milk delivered to dairies. The UK is already more advanced in the collation of such market information."@en1
