06/09/2006 (Agence Europe) - On 5 September, the European Parliament adopted a proposal to adapt the system of milk levies to the new financial framework (Daul report). This levy should be paid sometime between 16 October and 30 November of each year, rather than before the 1st October under the existing regulation. In addition, the proposal allows some new Member States exceptionally to transfer unused “direct sales” milk quotas to their “deliveries” quotas.
