Houghton to question DEFA boss in Tynwald
North Douglas MHK John Houghton believes butchers could be driven out of business - if a claim the Meat Plant will start trading as a retailer is true.
He'll ask Environment, Food and Agriculture Minister Richard Ronan about the issue in Tynwald tomorrow (TUESDAY).
Mr Houghton was told by a local butcher that the Meat Plant would start selling meat thus competing with other retailers it supplies.
And he says that would do significant damage to the industry:
