Regulation 4 Recovery of charges
Where—
a charge is due under regulation 3,
there is due from the Board to the registered dairy farmer a sum of money not less than that charge, and
no determination has been made by the Minister that the charge should be collected directly by him,
such charge shall be recovered by the Board on behalf of the Minister by deduction of a sum equal to that charge from such sum of money.
The Minister shall notify the registered dairy farmer before any deduction is made by the Board under paragraph (1) hereof.
The Minister shall meet such reasonable costs as the Board may incur in recovering charges under paragraph (1) hereof.
Any charge due under regulation 3 which is not recoverable under paragraph (1) hereof shall become payable on a demand being served on the registered dairy farmer by the Minister.
Any sum remaining unpaid may be recovered by the Minister from the registered dairy farmer summarily as a civil debt.
