Dissolution
The Board's responsibilities effectively ended, save for residual functions, in 1994 with deregulation of the British milk market following the Agriculture Act 1993. Its former processing division, Dairy Crest, survives to this day as an independent company.
The Milk Marketing Board was finally dissolved in 2002. The Scottish Milk Marketing Board was similarly dissolved in 2003. The Milk Marketing Forum acts as a spiritual successor.

Famous quotes containing the word dissolution:
“We are threatened with suffering from three directions: from our own body, which is doomed to decay and dissolution and which cannot even do without pain and anxiety as warning signals; from the external world, which may rage against us with overwhelming and merciless forces of destruction; and finally from our relations to other men. The suffering which comes from this last source is perhaps more painful than any other.”
—Sigmund Freud (1856–1939)
“From low to high doth dissolution climb,
And sink from high to low, along a scale
Of awful notes, whose concord shall not fail;”
—William Wordsworth (1770–1850)
“The most dangerous aspect of present-day life is the dissolution of the feeling of individual responsibility. Mass solitude has done away with any difference between the internal and the external, between the intellectual and the physical.”
—Eugenio Montale (1896–1981)
