er, no, unless you are a banana importer, when you suddenly find you need different bananas for different markets, the whole point of such legislation is that if a banana can be sold in England it can be sold in France or Germany...

For you or I doing our weekly shop at Tesco pah, but for tesco signing a contract with Carribian Bannana imports inc, it makes life easier.

Though on the flip side the EU working time regs must make thier lives magnitudes more difficult than the banana issue.
