otherwise a fit and proper person.
A visual classification licence may be granted subject to such terms and conditions as the Scottish Ministers consider appropriate for the purposes of carrying out a visual classification of carcases.
A person to whom a visual classification licence is granted must comply with the terms and conditions subject to which it is granted.
