11.—The following section shall be substituted for section 33 of the Act of 1937:
|
|
| |
“33.—(1) Where—
|
|
| |
(a) a copy of an external-sales sub-quota certificate in relation to any premises has been duly served on the licensee in respect of such premises, and
|
|
| |
(b) the quantity of bacon exported from such premises during the external-sale period specified in the certificate is less than the external-sales sub-quota for such premises in respect of that external-sale period,
|
|
| |
the licensee shall be guilty of an offence under this subsection and shall be liable on summary conviction thereof to a fine calculated at the rate of two pounds for every hundredweight by which the amount of bacon so exported falls short of the external-sales sub-quota for such premises in respect of that external-sale period.
|
|
| |
(2) Where a licensee in respect of licensed premises contravenes any provision of an external-sales order requiring—
|
|
| |
(a) bacon to be exported to any specified country, or
|
|
| |
(b) bacon to conform with specified requirements,
|
|
| |
the licensee shall be guilty of an offence under this subsection and shall be liable on summary conviction thereof to a fine calculated at the rate of two pounds for every hundredweight not exported to that specified country in accordance with the order or for every hundredweight not complying with the said requirements, as the case may be.
|
|
| |
(3) Where a licensee in respect of licensed premises contravenes a provision of an external-sales order requiring him to furnish documentary evidence in accordance with the order, the licensee shall be guilty of an offence under this subsection and shall be liable on summary conviction thereof, in the case of a first offence under this subsection, to a fine not exceeding twenty-five pounds and, in the case of a second or any subsequent offence under this subsection, to a fine not exceeding fifty pounds.
|
|
| |
(4) Where bacon produced in licensed premises is transferred to other premises and subsequently exported during any external-sale period, such bacon shall be deemed for the purposes of subsections (1) and (2) of this section to have been exported from the first-mentioned premises, during that external-sale period.”
