TRADE MEASUREMENT ACT 1989 - SECT 38

38 Administering authority may issue permits

(1) The administering authority may issue to a person a permit authorising the sale of a pre-packed article the sale of which would otherwise be an offence under section 28 or 30.

(2) The issue of a permit operates to authorise such a sale, in the circumstances and subject to any conditions specified in the permit, by:

(a) the permit holder, but only while the permit is in force, and

(b) any other person, whether or not the permit is in force, if the permit holder sells the article while the permit is in force,

so long as, at the time of sale, the seller gives to the purchaser a copy of the permit concerned.

(3) The requirement under subsection (2) that the seller give the purchaser a copy of the permit does not apply if the sale to the purchaser is not for the purposes of resale.
