Whereas I am satisfied that the circumstances connected with the sale or exposure for sale of the seeds described in the Schedule hereto (hereinafter called "the said seeds") in containers labelled and sealed with the official labels and seals of the European Economic Community are such that compliance with the provisions of section 1 of the Seeds Act 1920(a), as amended by section 12 of the Agriculture (Miscellaneous Provisions) Act 1954(b) and section 24 of the Agriculture (Miscellaneous Provisions) Act 1963(c), cannot reasonably be enforced and that an exemption should be granted so as to apply generally to all persons as regards such provisions in relation to such sales or exposures for sale of the said seeds;
Now therefore in exercise of the powers conferred upon me by section 1(7) of the Seeds Act 1920 and of all other powers enabling me in that behalf and in accordance with Regulation 9 of the Seeds (Scotland) Regulations 1961(d) I hereby grant the following licence:—
