Statement From Craddock Farms Limited Re Protest Allegations

Statement From Craddock Farms Limited
29.3.15

Comments to be attributed to Stefan Craddock, Managing Director, Craddock Farms Ltd:

“The allegations made by the protesters are laughable, ridiculous and totally untrue.

“The protest today was unexpected and brief, lasting no longer than ten minutes, and while we believe people have a right to express their opinion, we do object to trespassing on private property. We spoke with the protesters, there was a discussion about a camera, we urged them to leave and they did so shortly after.

“The only notable occurrence was the protesters dumping a pile of propaganda, straw and silver beet leaves on the driveway.

“Neither of us who were on-site this morning is aware of any of the alleged incidents detailed in their press release so as far as we know, they are all completely untrue.

“As this was a trespass, the police have been notified.”
