This thread is well and truly derailed
OK, fair enough, I have to accept that paragraphs 15, 16 & 17 appear to have been removed from the updated guide. So sale of in-skin carcasses by the person who shot them direct to the final consumer or to a local retailer who supplies the final consumer is permitted without registration. Sounds like a reinstatement of what used to be referred to as the "hunter's exemption".
I wonder how long it will last?
All I wanted to know was prices per kg haha!!

Record keeping and traceability rules apply.
And yes, it does specify "in-skin". Once you get the skin off, or further process the carcass in any way, then your no longer supplying game, you're supplying game meat, and more rules come into play.
Also, supply of in-skin carcasses to a game dealer (AGHE) requires food business registration and trained hunter status.

Are you a registered food business?
Price per kilo around £2/kg in the skin (you asked for dealer rate)
Yes, as soon as you skin or process in any way (other than standard field prep I.e. gralloch) it becomes a product and you must be a good business
Described as self limiting, I.e what one can shoot so no one on there is own is likely to shoot large quantities
No, it's a definite change, because in the previous edition of the Wild Game Guide paragraphs 15, 16 & 17 dealt specifically with the scenario under discussion, and very clearly stated that Food Business Registration was required, with no ambiguity in the wording at all. If I knew how I'd copy and paste the relevant text from the document, which I have right here in front of me, but as I don't know how you'll just have to believe me.
Well that response is on about the same level as me saying there must be a typographical error in the new document!

You’ve thrown me here. I may be being silly but wasn’t the whole debate whether or not a food business is required and no was established but now you’re saying yes to in-skin carcass? So what can be sold without food business registration? For clarity I’m looking at selling direct to butchers.
I appreciate the info from everyone - even if it has confused me even more

Thank you!
If you are not a food business you can sell in the skin to a local butcher who sells direct to the final consumer, you cannot sell out of the skin.You’ve thrown me here.

You cannot sell in the skin to a game dealer if you are not a registered food business as the game dealer does not sell directly to the final consumer so the exemption does not apply.
