Abattoirs and game plants obtain their prescribed brands from the Food Authority on written application, paying the cost of manufacture. The licence holder keeps every issued brand locked away where only it and the meat safety inspector can reach it; on learning a brand is lost or stolen it reports this to the Authority at once and returns the remaining brands before applying for new ones (a damaged brand may be replaced). Within 7 days after the licence stops being in force (suspensions aside) all brands and branding equipment go back to the Authority (25 penalty units).
