Clopyralid in Early Day Motion 1996
« on: December 06, 2009, 19:30:08 »
I have just had a reply from Dan Norris MP in respect of the Early Day Motions 1996 and 1999. The reply that deals with Aminopyralid has nothing new to say.

However, I was completely taken aback by his comments on Clopyralid; "there have been no substantiated incidents involving clopyralid".
Even I know that Gardening Which was testing an organic liquid fertiliser from B&Q when they spotted the telltale distorted foliage of the plants treated with this fertiliser. Subsequent independent laboratory testing showed the presence of Clopyralid, which has now been confirmed by further tests done by B&Q.
Does anyone know of other substantiated incidents involving Clopyralid that I can quote in my reply to the Minister?
