Following the Millenniums decision to temporally ban the use of Stako bottles on Sunday the 20/05/2007 after the discovery of a number of bottles that appeared to be leaking and without further investigation
and information obtained, a potential risk of injury to both players and staff was identified, the Millennium is pleased to announce that the full cooperation of the manufacturer, Stako, has been forthcoming in the on going investigation. Stako themselves will be carrying out rigorous tests and checks along with independent tests been carried out in the UK. It is hoped that these tests and the actions taken by Stako will result in the Millennium being able to lift the imposed safety Ban in time for the next event held in London UK. In the mean time however the ban is to remain in place until the Millennium is satisfied beyond doubt of the safety of these bottles.

The Millennium would once again like to thank all the teams who co-operated so helpfully on the day to allow the event to finish without to much delay and the wonderful co-operation from all the trade who helped with the supply of loan bottles to effected teams. We also thank you all for your understanding that the decision we had to make was based solely on the real concern of the health and safety of the public, our customers (the players) and our staff.
