Agent application
22 Agent application
Where a person considers that the release of prescribed organisms of a particular kind would result in the control of:
target organisms of a particular kind or kinds; or
organisms to which a target recommendation applies or target recommendations apply;
(whether or not the organisms referred to in paragraph (a) or (b) can be controlled by existing agent organisms) the person may make an application to the Authority for a declaration that the first‑mentioned organisms are agent organisms for the purposes of this Act.
An agent application shall be in writing signed:
in the case of an application by a natural person—by the applicant; or
in any other case—by a natural person authorized by the applicant to do so.
An agent application in relation to organisms of a particular kind shall set out:
particulars identifying the organisms;
particulars of the possible ways in which the applicant considers that the release of the organisms could control the relevant population of target organisms; and
such other particulars (if any) as are prescribed.
