[QUOTE="Grass And Grain, post: 8177511, member: 23184"] Good question. Your milk and beef examples are crazy. Imagine there's many occasions where land gets sold or a standing cereal crop gets sold, and purchased by an assured farmer, then sold as assured. Which makes you wonder if it's also OK to purchase non-assured grain and then sell it out as assured? I don't see the difference (although think it would be pulling wool over eyes of the purchaser, so not suggesting it should he done). That said, non-assured imports get a magic assurance sticker by virtue of a few lab tests, and AIC have given themselves the self-appointed power to allow this, so why can't I or anyone else give ourselves the self appointed power to do this, by any method we see fit, be that lab testing, declaration, etc. Ridiculous isn't it. Lots of people admit to making the dates up of things like grain bucket washing. We all know the dates get made up, as no-one has time to faff about writing down such a thing (as in per your medical staff hand washing example). Red Tractor inspectors know the dates are made up. If ever I've forgotten to write something down, my inspectors have previously just suggested I fill in a date during the inspection - make one up. I'm sure NFU and RT know lots of the dates get made up, yet they still insist everyone carries on with the charade. [/QUOTE]
