Desuden fandtes der under alle omstændigheder ingen beviser for, at transportomkostningerne i Skotland er steget i de seneste år, og højere transportomkostninger kan derfor ikke forklare fællesskabsproducenternes nylige øgede finansielle tab.
Further and in any event, no evidence was produced to the effect that transport costs in Scotland have increased in recent years, and therefore, higher transport costs could not explain the recent increase in financial losses suffered by the Community producers.
