Abstract

The Regulations set quality standards to be met by certain genera and species of plant material when marketed and prescribe conditions to be satisfied by suppliers of plant material, subject to an exemption for small producers all of whose production and sales of plant material are intended for final use by persons on the local market who are not professionally involved in plant production. Suppliers may not market plant material unless it is substantially free on visual inspection from harmful organisms and diseases and unless it satisfies minimum quality requirements; and producers are required to take certain measures if such organisms and diseases are found (regs. 5 and 6). Additional quality requirements are prescribed in respect of the marketing of plant material of the genus Citrus by producers (reg. 7).
