A new law will come into effect in January, making it illegal to import any bee other than the Apis mellifera mellifera to the area.
Pity the BBC headed their article with a picture of what are clearly hybrids! Also got this wording a bit wrong: ' but just one honeybee species, the native Black Bee (Apis mellifera mellifera).'
