robin Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 Just had a look at http://www.defra.gov.uk/footandmouth/ and can't see any mention of restrictions on taking meat / dairy produce out of the country. Does that mean the restrictions lifted or that I can't find the relevant notice? Anyone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Dwight Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 According to the press today it looks as if the restrictions will be lifted next week. We were concerned about taking tinned dog food and biscuits with meat extracts in them. David Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peterjl Posted August 23, 2007 Share Posted August 23, 2007 Hi Johnsandy The page you link to has not been updated since the 21st. The latest news looks like rules are changing - i'm off tomorrow evening so if they have changed the rules it would be nice to know. Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnsandywhite Posted August 23, 2007 Share Posted August 23, 2007 :-( It would appear that it is ONLY business Exports that have been allowed so far. :-( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
