Defence

89.  Where a person responsible for putting a zootechnical product into circulation is charged with an offence under these Regulations in respect of a product that has been manufactured or assembled to his order by another person and which has been so manufactured or assembled so as not to comply with his order, it shall be a defence for him to prove—

(a)that, in placing his order, a copy of the documents relating to the manufacture and assembly of the product were available, or had been provided, to that other person and the person responsible for putting the product into circulation had instructed that other person to manufacture or assemble the product in accordance with those documents,

(b)that if that other person had complied with that instruction, no offence would have been committed, and

(c)that the person responsible for putting the product into circulation did not know, and could not by the exercise of reasonable care have known, that those instructions had not been complied with.
