[QUOTE="ollie989898, post: 4146656, member: 54866"] It matters not to me Clive, but I can assure you they are all well aware of what chemicals cost to bring to market, how much it costs to submit them for approval and how many units of product they can expect to sell annually in the UK. If you begin to interfere with any of the above, their sums will not add up and you will lose products purely on commercial grounds. It has already happened even in my short tenure and it will undoubtedly happen again. I'm not talking about people refusing to supply you personally, I am talking about the industry losing an active completely because no one will submit the data for them to begin an approval process. They have their hands on the taps and the UK and Europe is not their only game, if you screw one active hard enough they will just divert it somewhere else or stop making it. Someone has to make a shilling out of the product or it just won't be done. You saw how they reacted when the issue of extremely cheap imported products came on the radar. Now you are trying to tell me they are AOK with it being a crapshoot? These companies are not stupid Clive, they talk to one another, you don't think someone hasn't tried to strong arm them before?
