This is the original version (as it was originally enacted).
(1)No person shall manufacture for sale a substance to which this Part of this Act applies unless he holds a licence for the purpose from the licensing authority, or elsewhere than on the premises in respect of which such a licence is in force.
(2)A licence under this section shall continue in force for such period as may be prescribed, but may from time to time be renewed for a like period, and may extend to all the substances to which this Part of this Act applies, or to such one or more of them as may be specified in the licence, and shall be issued subject to such conditions as may be prescribed.
(3)An applicant for a licence or the renewal of a licence must satisfy the licensing authority that the conditions under which the substances are to be manufactured by him and the premises in which they are to be manufactured are such as to comply with any regulations made under this Part of this Act, and an applicant who so satisfies the licensing authority shall be entitled to the grant or renewal of the licence.
(4)The licensing authority may revoke a licence or suspend it for such period as he thinks fit if, in his opinion, the licensee has failed to comply with the conditions subject to which the licence was issued or with the regulations made under this Part of this Act as to the prescribed standards of strength, quality and purity, and such revocation or suspension may apply to all the substances to which the licence applies or to some one or more of them:
Provided that a person who is aggrieved by the revocation or suspension of his licence may appeal to the High Court, whose decision shall be final.
(5)Nothing in this section shall apply to the preparation by a duly qualified medical practitioner for any of his own patients or for and at the request of another such practitioner of a substance to which this Part of this Act applies, if it is specially prepared with reference to the condition, and for the use, of an individual patient.
(6)In the application of this section to Scotland, for the reference to the High Court there shall be substituted a reference to the Court of Session.
