Stolen Meat
Food security expert Professor Chris Elliott calls for greater policing to keep stolen livestock from the food chain. Presented by Charlotte Smith.
A leading food security expert calls for more coordinated policing to keep stolen livestock from the food chain. Professor Chris Elliott - who carried out the inquiry into the horsemeat scandal and is currently director of the Institute for Global Food Safety - said there is no knowing how rustled animals have been slaughtered and therefore whether it's safe to eat. Meat is often sold directly to catering outlets.
We also hear about a government fund to help around 600 farmers affected by this week's flooding.
Presented by Charlotte Smith and produced by Sally Challoner.
