Article 33 General obligations concerning GB pest-free areasF5

With regard to a F1GB pest-free area, the obligations set out in Articles 9 to 19 shall apply mutatis mutandis to the F2relevant PFA quarantine pest.

Where a PFA quarantine pest is found to be present in a GB pest-free area established in respect of that PFA quarantine pest and the competent authority has established a demarcated area in response to its presence, any plant, plant product or other object originating in the demarcated area may only be moved from that demarcated area into the remaining part of that GB pest-free area or into any other GB pest-free area established in respect of that PFA quarantine pest if its movement has been authorised by, or on behalf of, the competent authority by notice.

By way of derogation from paragraph 2, a plant, plant product or other object may be moved out of that demarcated area and through and out of the GB pest-free area concerned if it is packed and moved in such a way that there is no risk of spreading the relevant PFA quarantine pest within the GB pest-free area.
