Article 26 Obligation to register
Subject to paragraph (2), no plant trader must engage in any activity to which this Order applies unless he or she is registered in respect of the activity and the premises at which it takes place.
The requirement in paragraph (1) for a plant trader to be registered does not apply to a producer whose entire production and sale of relevant material is intended for final use by persons on the local market who are not involved in plant production in the course of a trade or business.
Entries on the register kept under article 15(1) of the Plant Health (Great Britain) Order 1993f1 on the day before the date of the coming into force of this Order may, subject to the provisions of this Part, remain in effect for the purposes of this Order as if entered on the register maintained under article 25(1).
