6 Commission may direct method of taking a poll
Subject to these regulations the Commission may direct that any poll taken in relation to a producers’ committee or a proposed producers’ committee for the purposes of the Act shall be taken —
at a meeting or meetings convened for that purpose; or
by a postal ballot held for that purpose.
Notwithstanding that a poll has been conducted under subregulation (1)(a) if it considers that the meeting held under that provision is not representative of the views of eligible producers, the Commission may direct that a poll be taken by postal ballot and the direction shall have effect accordingly.
Where under subregulation (1)(a) the Commission directs that a poll be taken at a meeting the Commission shall provide postal ballot facilities for the purposes of regulation 12.
