This Order, which extends to Scotland only, makes provision for the issue of phytosanitary certificates and reforwarding phytosanitary certificates and for the provision of related services for the export of plants, plant products or other objects to third countries.
Phytosanitary certificates and reforwarding phytosanitary certificates are required to accompany exports of certain plants, plant products or other objects to third countries.
The Order prescribes fees for the issue of these certificates and for these services (article 4 and the Schedule). The services are performed in connection with applications received for the issue of phytosanitary certificates or reforwarding phytosanitary certificates in accordance with the provisions of the Plant Health (Great Britain) Order 1993 (article 3). The Order authorises an inspector to enter onto premises for the purpose of carrying out examinations under the Order (article 3(3)).
Provision is made in the Order for offences in relation to procuring the issue of a phytosanitary certificate or reforwarding phytosanitary certificate (article 5).
The fees prescribed by this Order are necessary to recover the costs expected to be incurred in the provision of the export services.
