Article 6 (levies) is amended as follows.
The Agriculture and Horticulture Development Board must impose a levy in relation to each industry covered by article 2(1)(a), (b), (d) and (e) to enable it to provide services for each of those industries, and Schedule 3 has effect for that purpose.
In paragraph (4), omit “annually”.
The Board may impose a levy rate of zero for a period of time in relation to any industry covered by article 2(1)(a), (b), (d) or (e) if— it considers that there are exceptional circumstances which justify doing so, and the appropriate authority has approved the imposition of a levy rate of zero for that period of time.
