On settled schemes the policy is to accept an assignment of a percentage of the farmers' monthly milk cheques, leaving the balance for maintenance and living expenses. On those dairying schemes which have not yet been individualized, the full amount received for butterfat is retained, the workers being paid wages, but in the majority of cases a portion only of the cream returns is actually paid to the Department.
