Abstract

This Act empowers the Minister to prohibit by Order and for any specified period, the export of any plant if in his or her opinion such prohibition is expedient for the purpose of establishing or extending any agricultural industry in Grenada. The Minister may also, in certain cases, grant a licence authorizing the export of any plant the exportation of which would normally be contrary to the provisions of an Order, and any such licence may be granted subject to conditions which the Minister may impose. The Act also concerns powers of enforcement and inspection and `the disposal of forfeited plants.
