Resumen

The Act establishes that the Minister may designate and revoke a body corporate, operating on a non-profit basis, as the Wine Authority for the purpose of administering this Act and the regulations. In case of revocation, the Minister may appoint a person to act in the place of the Wine Authority until such time as a new body corporate is designated by the Minister. The objects of the Wine Authority are to establish, administer and enforce an appellation of origin system, known as the Nova Scotia Quality Wine Standards Certification Program, that will allow consumers to identify Nova Scotia wines on the basis of the areas where the grapes are grown, the type of grapes grown and the methods used in making the wine; to control the use of specified terms, descriptions and designations associated with the Program; and to educate grape growers, wineries and the public with respect to the Program. Further objectives are identified by the Act and they include: establish an appellation of origin system, conduct audits, monitoring, inspections and investigations, establish fees, etc.
