"Turkish Cypriot brick producer hits back
By Lucy Millett
The Turkish Cypriot brick producer at the centre of an unfair competition row has hit back at claims that his bricks do not fulfil the minimum manufacturing standards of the EU.
Seven Greek Cypriot brick factories are seeking a court injunction to prohibit the transport of bricks from the north, arguing that manufacturers in the north are not following EU rules and are not subject to the requisite factory controls for the manufacture of the bricks. They claim that the Republic of Cyprus is violating their constitutional right to equal treatment because the aquis communautaire does not apply to their Turkish Cypriot rivals."
