Processor licence denial upheld due to non-compliance; producer licence granted conditionally.
The appellants, Boneta Foods and Robert Meersseman, appealed decisions denying them a processor licence and a producer licence for the 1997 crop year.
The Tribunal upheld the denial of the processor licence to Boneta Foods, finding a history of non-compliance with payment terms and poor financial management.
However, the Tribunal granted Mr. Meersseman a producer licence on the condition that he obtain a contract with a licensed processor, noting that late applications had been accommodated in the past.
