Supplies of high class gelatine are still very short.
Both types of gelatine are manufactured using the same production process.
I am referring first of all to the phoney debate on gelatine.
The second factor is the way in which gelatine is manufactured, the process.
In other words, the date from which tallow and gelatine may actually be exported again has not even been set.
As far as gelatine and tallow are concerned, we cannot simply regard these as being on a par with meat.
I understand that these can extend to such products as gelatine and jelly babies.
Import licences for gelatine are granted freely subject to a price ceiling agreed with importers.
