Abstract

These Regulations, consisting of 51 sections divided into four Parts and completed by four Schedules, establish the quality requirements to be satisfied and sanitary measures (including quarantine) for food, animal and plant products in order to avoid infectious diseases in the country. In particular, the Regulations establish that if sanitary officers on inspection of any vessel in port find any decaying animal or vegetable matter, fruit, water, rubbish, dirt, filth or other matter, which in his opinion is likely to be injurious to health or to create a nuisance, he may serve a notice on the master, agent or owner of the vessel to abate the nuisance within such period as he may specify in the notice. Any foodstuff, water, animal or other article conveyed from within the boundary of any quarantine station or from any vessel in quarantine, or from within the limits of any quarantine anchorage, without the permission of any health officer, may be destroyed without compensation.
