Licences
5.—(1) A licence under this article shall be in writing and may be—
(a)granted either generally or to one or more particular persons;
(b)granted either absolutely or subject to compliance with such conditions as are specified in the licence;
(c)either of indefinite duration or expressed to expire on a specified date.
(2) A licence granted to one or more particular persons may be revoked or varied at any time by written notice given by the Treasury to each of those persons.
(3) The Treasury shall publish a general licence in such manner as they think fit. A general licence may be revoked or varied at any time by written notice which shall be published by the Treasury in the same manner as the licence.
(4) Any person who, in doing or having done an act mentioned in article 3(a) or (b) or 4(1) under the authority of a licence, contravenes or fails to comply with a condition specified in the licence, is guilty of an offence, unless the condition is one imposed as a result of a variation of the licence made without his consent after he did the act.
(5) A notice under paragraph (2) may be given by post, and shall be deemed to have been given to a person if it is sent to him at his last-known address.
