Conservationists applaud EU decision to ban permanently wild bird trade
12-01-2007
The EU Commission has announced that the ban on imports of birds caught in the wild is to be made permanent throughout the European Union later this year.
The move comes after a temporary ban was imposed within the EU in October 2005, after birds in a UK quarantine centre were found to have avian influenza.
The ban is to take effect from the 1 July 2007.
