Food imported for purpose of sale - Removal of importer’s registration

126: Removal from public register

You could also call this:

"When your food business registration is cancelled or surrendered, your details are removed from a public list."

Illustration for Food Act 2014

If the chief executive cancels your registration under section 127, this section applies to you. It also applies if the chief executive is told that you have surrendered your registration under section 130. The chief executive must then do two things as soon as possible. They must record that your registration has been cancelled or surrendered on the public register and remove you from the public register.
