You'd get more than that at the game dealers surely?

 

this is true but they have now sold there business so we have no where local I have filled the local resteraunts so i would pefer for someone to have and use the meat at a reduced cost so its not wasted or there would be no point in shooting them

Technically:

 

Legislation requires that anything put

into the food chain must be safe to eat

♦Can not process the carcases beyond

gralloching, removing the head & feet

and removing the pluck

♦Can only supply up to 300 carcasses per

year in this way

♦Can only supply to a final consumer or

♦Can only supply to a retailer (that is

itself supplying a final consumer) who is

in the same or neighbouring local

authority area or is within 50 km radius

of the producer’s property, whichever

is the greatest.

♦If selling the carcase, then must have a

Venison Dealers Licence obtained from

the Local Authority

 

In short - he's in the clear if the last bit applies, or if supplying to a game dealer - but its all a load of ****.... This only applies to venison still in the skin btw

 

EDIT - should clarify this is just a tiny bit of the legislation, and is effectively the only way one can sell venison in this way without being registered as a food business, and the only way of selling venison without DSC1 or similar. To make it more complicated you can't sell venison to a game dealer (ie a processor) without tagging it and being a trained person (DSC 1 or similar) except in rare circumstances. This is all totally ignored by most of course. Clear as ******* mud?

 

I know my local GD offers £40-£45 for a roe carcass and doesn't tend to ask for any of the above. But then I don't often get enough to sell on really anyway.....
