1. They are accompanied by an official certificate, dated and signed by a responsible officer of a Government Department of the country of origin, identifying the potatoes, specifying the quantity, and certifying—

(a.) That at the date of the issue of the certificate they were free from Phytophthora infestans (known as Irish Blight); Synchytrium endobioticum (known as potato canker, black scab, warty disease, and cauliflower disease in potatoes); Spongospora subterranea (known as powdery scab); and all other serious diseases.

(b.) That they were grown in the country named.

(c.) That they were grown on premises known after due investigation not to be or to have been during the preceding twelve months infected with any of the said diseases.

(d.) That they were packed in the country of origin in clean, new packages.

2. The bags, crates, or other packages containing the potatoes are marked on the outside with the name of the country of origin and with other distinguishing mark or marks.

3. The potatoes, after being landed, are planted in quarantine in a quarantine station, and after having matured are, with the product of their cultivation, found on inspection to be free from disease.

Provided that no consignment of potatoes shall exceed 14 lb. in weight, unless the potatoes are imported by or on behalf of a State Government:

Provided further that the Minister may permit potatoes which are certified by a Quarantine Officer to be free from disease, to be imported under and subject to such conditions as the Minister may think fit to impose, for use as food.
