This Act provides rules relative to the granting of commercial trading licences. The Minister, or a person authorized by him or her, may, by Notice in the National Gazette, grant to a person a general mercantile licence, a copra buyer's licence or a pedlar's licence. A copra buyer's licence authorizes the licensee to engage in the business of buying and selling coconuts and copra at a place specified in the licence. Unlicensed trading shall be an offence. The Head of State may make Regulations requiring licences to be obtained by other specified traders or prescribing conditions relative to licences.
