§ Mr. Ron DaviesTo ask the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food what steps he is taking to ensure that health requirements on the importation of bees are sufficient to prevent the introduction of varroa to this country.
§ Mr. MacleanOur aim is to keep this country free of varroasis. The Importation of Bees Order 1980 prohibits imports of honey bees except under licence from countries of high bee health status which are free from varroasis.
