Regulation 75 Duties of the appropriate authority in relation to registration of small producersI1
United Kingdom
The appropriate authority must grant an application for registration where an applicant—
has complied with the requirements of regulation 16;
is not a member of a producer compliance scheme; and
does not appear in the register of producers maintained by the appropriate authority under F1regulation 77,
otherwise the appropriate authority must refuse the application.
Where the application for registration is granted, the F2appropriate authority must, within 28 days of receipt of the application—
confirm to the applicant that he is registered with the appropriate authority; and
subject to paragraph (3), allocate a new producer registration number to the producer and confirm it in writing.
If the applicant appeared on the register maintained under F3regulation 77 during any of the five previous compliance periods preceding the compliance period during which the application for registration is made, the appropriate authority must, instead of allocating a new producer registration number, allocate the applicant’s most recently allocated producer registration number.
