Poppy Industry Act 2016

If an offence against a provision of this Act or the regulations is committed by a person by reason of a continuing act or omission—

the person is liable, in addition to the penalty otherwise applicable to the offence, to a penalty for each day during which the act or omission continues of not more than an amount equal to one-tenth of the maximum fine prescribed for that offence, and

if the act or omission continues after the person is convicted of the offence, the person is guilty of a further offence against that provision and liable, in addition to the penalty otherwise applicable to the further offence, to a penalty for each day during which the act or omission continues after that conviction of not more than an amount equal to one-tenth of the maximum fine prescribed for that offence.

An obligation to do something is to be regarded as continuing until the act is done despite the fact that a period within which, or time before which, the act is required to be done has expired or passed.

An omission is to be regarded as continuing for as long as the thing required to be done remains undone after the end of the period for compliance with the requirement.
