A registered fish seller is authorised for the purposes of F1Chapter II of Title V (Control of marketing : post-landing activities), insofar as that person sells first sale fish by any form of competitive bidding at a designated auction site either on their own behalf or as the seller’s agent.

Any person may apply, using such form as the National Assembly may prescribe, to the National Assembly to be registered as a fish seller.

An applicant for registration as a fish seller must include with the application a statement of the facilities and the proposed methods of operation the applicant intends to use and of the place where the applicant intends to maintain the records of sales of first sale fish.

In considering an application for registration the National Assembly must take into account whether the statement as to the facilities and proposed methods of operation of the applicant, and of the place where the applicant intends to maintain the records of sales of first sale fish, are such as to assist compliance by the applicant with F2Articles 59, 62, 63, 64, 66 and 67 and these Regulations.

The National Assembly must notify an applicant in writing of its decision on an application made to it in accordance with this regulation.

Where the National Assembly grants a registration it will be subject to and must specify the conditions listed at Schedule 1.

The National Assembly must publish a list of registered fish sellers in such manner as it sees fit.

Any person who knowingly or recklessly makes a false statement for the purposes of an application under this regulation is guilty of an offence.

Any registered fish seller who sells first sale fish in breach of a condition of registration is guilty of an offence.
