- 1993
- Estates Gazette (1993) 19 EG 138-141(4) .
QBD 26 January 1993. A14licants (C) were a family partnership of dairy farmers in Kent. In 1989 C purchased plant to produce and sell ice-cream outside the milk quota system. The father of the family died in 1989 and subsequent problems with his estate meant the ice-cream business did not start properly before February 1991 when the milk quota system was extended to additional milk products (including ice-cream). C applied to the Dairy Produce Quota Tribunal who felt there was insufficient historical evidence of quantities of milk applied in the manufacture of ice-cream on the farm. C contended that the tribunal relied on historically acheived sales of ice-cream as distinct from evidence of reasonably anticipated sales. C`s application allowed, matter to be reconsidered at tribunal.
