is that right I seem to remember that Hybu Cig Cymru were doing something with Japan and lamb some time back to do with llanybydder can't recall the detailsAs I understand it, the Japanese government has just revoked the ban on UK meat that they put in place because of BSE, back in 1996. No new EU deal, just allowing UK meat back in, and probably one of the last countries to do so.
It's another Barrier to exports removed, which is always good, but hardly a significant one in the grand scheme of things. What quantity of beef & lamb was being exported to Japan prior to 1996? I suspect not a lot. But hey, every little helps.
