Title: Electronic Tagging
Post by: Rosey on August 02, 2008, 12:21:41 pm

Does anyone know whether they have decided to make this compulsory in the UK yet or whether we will be continuing with double tagging. Has anyone done any pricing on equipment?

I don't think it's been decided yet. There has been a huge petition in Scotland against it but whether it has any impact on Brussels will remain to be seen.

I was under the impression that it will be coming in in the next few years.  :(
