Since sending my original message I have come across 2 useful
articles on the MAFF website:

http://www.maff.gov.uk/food/infsheet/1995/no52/52honey.htm

which is the results of a small scale study into possible ragwort
honey poisoning. In case you don't have ready access to the web,
the doc. ends:

Further information can be obtained from:

and:

 which is about controlling weeds including ragwort.

I understand that the original problem in Cornwall has now been
resolved.
