Dave at kelton Posted May 5, 2019 Report Share Posted May 5, 2019 Yes the powers of NE have been removed as of yesterday morning and it has been called in by Gove and put in the hands of defra. They will be calling for evidence from all sides. Plenty of information on the web about this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Good shot? Posted May 5, 2019 Report Share Posted May 5, 2019 (edited) NE are to continue issuing the individual licence with help from DEFRA to combat any backlog I believe. See Goves letter to NE. Edited May 6, 2019 by Good shot? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BASC asked NE last week to re issue the old GL immediately after the Crow GL was deemed not fit for purpose, but NE did nothing. Now DEFRA taken over from yesterday Now in a consultation process deadline for Input is 5PM Monday The 13th of May, how long after before they sort it all out is anybody’s guess.

Miserableolgit Posted May 5, 2019 Report Share Posted May 5, 2019 I think this thread is playing catch up. Best bet is to check the BASC, NGO & NE sites for the latest developments. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
