“(2) A discontinuous totaliser imported from another member State or from an EEA State shall not be passed as fit for use for trade unless—

(a) where the requisite documentation is presented in accordance with regulation 32A above, the test report recites and the test data confirm to the satisfaction of the inspector that on testing in accordance with the provisions of the law of a member State or an EEA State it fell within limits of error which afford in use an equivalent standard to the prescribed limits of error; and

(b) it otherwise complies with all the relevant requirements of these Regulations; and

(c) the inspector is of the opinion that it is not constructed in a manner which facilitates fraudulent use and that it does not bear any inscriptions which might cause confusion in use.”.
