Under section 36 of the Meat Board Act 2004, the New Zealand Meat Board (“Board”) must recover the costs of quota administration services from the users of those services.

New Zealand (NZ) and United Kingdom (UK) have negotiated a Free Trade Agreement (“FTA”) which is being ratified and implemented by the UK and NZ Parliaments before the FTA can enter into force. In anticipation of ratification and implementation processes being concluded for entry into force the Board has developed a Quota Allowance Allocation System to enable administration of the UK FTA Beef TRQ.

To prepare for this, the Board has determined quota management fees payable in respect of the New FTA Quotas, and these are set out in the table below. The fees will apply with immediate effect.
