Importing from USA
The message
from Nick Wagg contains these words: PK wrote: Same bureaucratic jobs worths who try to prevent importation of meat products by similar means no doubt? ...and tried unsuccessfully to keep Japanese knotweed out of the UK. ?? IIRC JK was a deliberate introduction, as a gardenworthy plant. PK is correct, the illegal import of meat is a serious concern since it may carry farm animal diseases. In other countries, restrictions on the accidental or deliberate movement of animal or plant material which can cause environmental damage or infect food production are very tight and for good reason. Given this country's experience of imported problems and their devastating ecological and economic impact, we should take better care. Janet. |
