No, Mr. Chairman. The quota is set on a butter fat basis, and any displacement by MPCs that takes place, for example, in the manufacture of cheese, affects the solids, not the fats side of the equation. Therefore, the way the system is currently operated, displacement by MPCs would not affect the quota. It would affect, however, the skim milk powder surplus.
