7A licensee must pay the chief executive’s reasonable costs of monitoring activities performed under the licence, including any costs of an analyst conducting a laboratory analysis necessary to determine the concentration of THC in the leaves and flowering heads of cannabis plants in the licensee’s possession.

8A category 2 researcher must allow an inspector to destroy, or supervise the destruction of, cannabis plants in the possession of the licensee that have been found, by an analyst conducting a laboratory analysis of a random sample of the leaves and flowering heads of the plants, to have a concentration of THC in their leaves and flowering heads of 3% or more.

9A grower must allow an inspector to destroy, or supervise the destruction of, cannabis plants in the possession of the licensee that have been found, by an analyst conducting a laboratory analysis of a random sample of the leaves and flowering heads of the plants, to have a THC concentration in their leaves and flowering heads of more than 1%.

10A licensee who proposes to supply industrial cannabis seed for sale by wholesale or retail must ensure—

(a)if the seed is cannabis seed harvested from an industrial cannabis plant—the package containing the seed has a label on it or attached to it that describes the contents of the package as cannabis seed harvested from an industrial cannabis plant; or

(b)if the seed is certified cannabis seed—the package containing the seed has a label on it, or attached to it, that describes the contents of the package as certified cannabis seed.

11A category 2 researcher must ensure, as far as practicable, that cannabis seed supplied to the researcher by a person in another State or a foreign country is certified as seed that, if grown, will produce cannabis plants with a THC concentration in their leaves and flowering heads of less than 3%.

12A grower must ensure, as far as practicable, that cannabis seed supplied to the grower by a person in another State or a foreign country is certified as seed that, if grown, will produce cannabis plants with a THC concentration in their leaves and flowering heads of not more than 0.5%.
