Ronan says no one can be blamed for the blunder
It's time to put Shoprite's Manx meat labelling mix-up behind us - according to Environment, Food and Agriculture Minister Richard Ronan.
The department issued a statement after the supermarket apologised for a number of mishaps yesterday (10 August).
It faced criticism from farmers and consumers earlier this week, after it emerged on social media that a number of imported meat products were mis-sold as 'Manx'.
Shoprite said supplier shortages and labelling equipment errors caused the confusion.
It's now working with DEFA and the Manx National Farmers Union - who reported the mistakes - to ensure it doesn't happen again.
Mr Ronan says he doesn't believe anyone can be blamed for what happened:
Steam Packet urged to be more 'transparent' over Manxman issues
Government needs to 'break the cycle' of child poverty on Island
Proportion on waiting lists likely higher than England
Onchan Commissioners 'disappointed' at village post office closure
