Governance within the whisky cask market

Petition Details

Following a recent investigation showing millions of pounds of fraud within the whisky cask market alongside a decade of personal experience in the industry highlighting these issues, we are calling for the Government to work with trade bodies to provide tangible change within the whisky cask market

Additional Information

Some private individuals are being mis-sold and scammed, and we think the whisky industry is being irreparably damaged. We believe there is a simple solution that could eliminate all potential for fraud and help provide an open market for enthusiasts and investors to operate safely within. In order for meaningful change to come about, we want the Government to consider standards of trading and implement protective measures.
