'open food' means

(a) uncooked perishable food; and

(b) food that is not contained in a container of such materials,
and so closed, as to exclude all risk of contamination,

but does not include raw vegetables and uncut fruit or any food
that has to be subjected to a process of milling, refining or cooking
(other than food specified in paragraph (a) and food in the course
of preparation) for the purpose of rendering it fit for human
consumption;

'pitch' means an area of ground allotted by the Council to a hawker for

4. (1) Subject to paragraph (2) no person shall hawk in the
Regional Council area except under and in accordance with a
licence.

(2) Notwithstanding paragraph (1)-

(a)a person may hawk without a licence if he hawks in a
place or area, whether a hawker bazaar or otherwise, set
aside by the Council by notice in the Gazette as being a
place or area where a person may hawk without a licence
during the period the place or area is so set aside;

(b)a person whose licence under paragraph (1) has expired
may continue to hawk for a period of 2 months after the
date of the licence's expiry, but shall do so subject to the
terms and conditions contained in the expired licence as if
the licence were still valid.

5. The Council may, by notification published in the Gazette,
prescribe any place or area, other than a hawker bazaar, within
which no hawker may hawk unless his licence is endorsed by the
Council with permission to hawk therein.

6. (1) (a) The Council may, with the concurrence of the

stall may be allocated or reallocated for a period not exceeding 1
year.

(3) Where a licence is granted or renewed or a wall stall is
allocated or reallocated for a period less than 1 year, the fee for such
grant or renewal of the licence or allocation or reallocation of the





wall stall shall, subject to paragraph (6), be calculated by multiply-
ing one-twelfth of the appropriate annual fee specified in the Third
Schedule by the number of months for which the licence is granted
or renewed or the wall stall is allocated or reallocated as the case
may be.

(4) The Council may appoint such days of the year as it thinks
fit in respect of each Regional Services Department District Office as

licence or the allocation of a pitch or wall stall, as the case may be,
shall expire.

(5) Where, with the consent of the Council a licensee, other
than an itinerant hawker licensee, transfers his place of business
from one District to another, the licence may upon its expiry be
renewed upon payment of a fee calculated at the rate of one-twelfth
per month of the appropriate annual fee specified in the Third
Schedule for such period as will bring the renewal date of such
licence into conformity with the appropriate renewal date for
licences granted at the District Office for the District to which such
licence was transferred.

(6) Where a licence is granted or a pitch or wall stall is
allocated in the second half of any year of licence or allocation as the

personally present at the fixed pitch or wall stall, as the case may be,
and conduct or superintend the carrying on of such business:

alteration of, or addition to, any mobile van for the sale of food shall

otherwise than by reason of the misconduct of the hawker to whom
it was issued, the Council may in its discretion refund to such
hawker or to his legal personal representative a sum equivalent to
that proportion of the fee paid in respect of the licence that the
period for which the licence would otherwise have remained in force
bears to the period for which the licence was granted:

Provided that the period for which the licence would otherwise
