Graham 87 0 Posted February 2, 2009 Report Share Posted February 2, 2009 i read and saw on telly not that long back that if you wanted to suply places with game you had to be a licensed dealer or something along those lines but i think deker has gave you the best bit of advice ATB Quote Link to post

As mentioned earlier on this site its all thank to the EU. The sooner we are out of it the better. Rob. Quote Link to post
bullmastiff 610 Posted February 3, 2009 Report Share Posted February 3, 2009 I think theres a loop hole you might want to check up on. If game is supplied in an 'unprocessed' state (as in ungutted and not skinned) then you can supply as much as you like, then the chef/cook that has done all the relevant courses (they must of too work in a commercial Kitchen) can then process them himself. Might be worth checking out? Cheers Luke. Quote Link to post

arveyboy 0 Posted February 3, 2009 Report Share Posted February 3, 2009 (edited) i remember it said something along the lines of 'if these were being sold to a licensed restaurant they would have to be prepared by a licensed game dealer' no selling to your local then Edited February 3, 2009 by arveyboy Quote Link to post
stevie_87 2 Posted February 5, 2009 Report Share Posted February 5, 2009 Hey mate if you need some help sorting out those buns . i would be more than haaaaappppppy to help i'm just outside glasgow Quote Link to post
Deker 3,453 Posted February 5, 2009 Report Share Posted February 5, 2009 Detail is important..you need to talk to someone like the BASC to 100% clarify the issue. Loopholes are easy, driving at 35 miles an hour in a 30 MPH limit is illegal FULL STOP. BUT the problems only occur if you get caught!! Quote Link to post
