Any person —
(a) who buys or sells or who attempts to buy or sell any pig knowing or having reasonable cause to suspect such pig to be diseased and with the intention (in the opinion of the court before which he is charged) of making a claim for compensation therefor or in respect of the carcass or any portion of the carcass thereof; or
(b) who buys or sells or who attempts to buy or sell any carcass or any portion thereof knowing or having reasonable cause to suspect the carcass or portion thereof to be diseased with the intention (in the opinion of the court before which he is charged) of making a claim or enabling any other person to make a claim for compensation in respect of the carcass or any portion thereof,

(1a) (a) An agent, referred to in subsection (1), or a person, firm, or company whose business is or includes acting as selling agents of pigs or carcasses of pigs or both, on behalf of various owners, may apply to the Minister for a permit exempting him or them from complying with the requirements of subsection (1), but authorising him or them instead, while the permit is effective, to lodge with the Minister returns of purchase‑money received from sales of pigs or of carcasses of pigs, or both, sold by the applicant as agent during any periods of any duration fixed by the Minister, and to pay to the Minister the amount of duty payable under section 15 in respect of sales included in each return.

prima facie evidence of the matters contained in, the original.(g) Where an agent who is the holder of a valid and current permit so issued, receives purchase‑money for the sale on behalf of an owner of pigs or carcasses or both, the agent shall apply so much of the purchase‑money as equals the amount of duty payable under this Act on the sale in payment of the duty to the Minister whose acknowledgment of receipt of the payment of the amount is a discharge to the agent of liability to pay the amount to the principal or any person claiming through the principal, and is a discharge to the owner for liability to pay that amount of duty.
(h) Any amount which an agent is required by paragraph (g) to pay to the Minister, is, until so paid, a debt owing by the agent to the Minister and may, notwithstanding paragraph (j), be recovered from the agent in a court of competent jurisdiction, at the suit of the Commissioner of State Revenue.
(i) A person who, being an agent referred to in paragraph (g), does not comply with the requirements of that paragraph commits an offence.

no stamp duty is payable on the sale of the carcass.
(4) Where the holder of a valid and current permit issued under subsection (1a) compiles returns of any sales of pigs, or carcasses of pigs, or both, he shall transmit to the purchaser by ordinary letter post within 7 days of the sale, notification in writing of particulars of the sale and that as the holder of the permit he has included particulars of the sale in a return compiled pursuant to the permit.

(3) Any amount that a processing company is required by subsection (1) to pay to the Minister is, until so paid, a debt owing by the company to the Minister and may be recovered from the company in a court of competent jurisdiction at the suit of the Commissioner of State Revenue.
(4) A processing company that contravenes or fails to comply with any of the provisions of subsection (1) is guilty of an offence against this Act.
