AGRICULTURAL MARKETING ACTS (NORTHERN IRELAND) 1964 - SECT 4

Register of producers and lists.

4.(1) Every scheme shall provide for the registration of any producer who
makes application for that purpose, and for the removal from the register of
the names of persons who have ceased to be producers.

(2) The Ministry, as soon as practicable after any scheme has been framed,
shall cause a list to be compiled containing

(a)the names of all such persons within the area to which the scheme applies
as the Ministry has reason to believe are producers, not being persons to be
exempted from registration under the scheme; and

(b)the respective addresses of such persons so far as known to the Ministry.

(3) The annual agricultural statistics collected by the Ministry may be used
for the purpose of compiling the list under subsection (2) and when such list
has been compiled, the Ministry shall send by post to every person named in
the list particulars of the scheme framed by the Ministry, together with a
form of application for registration as a producer under the scheme.

(4) Registration under a scheme of the name or style under which two or more
persons carry on business in partnership as producers shall operate as the
registration of all the partners for the time being, so, however, that, for
the purposes of the provisions of this Act or of the scheme which relate to
elections and voting at meetings, and to the assessment of contributions on
registered producers, all the partners shall be treated as constituting
together a single registered producer.

(5) The register of producers for the purposes of a scheme shall be kept by
the board constituted under the scheme and shall be open for inspection, and
the board shall furnish a copy of the register, or of any part thereof, to any
person demanding it, upon payment of such fee as the Ministry may approve.
