(a)the re-dispatch of the Turkish products outside the European Community; or
(b)(where such re-dispatch would in the opinion of the authorised officer involve serious risks to human health) the destruction of the Turkish products.

(4) The period within which such an appeal as is mentioned in paragraph (2) may be brought shall be one month from the date on which the notice was served and the making of the complaint shall be deemed for the purpose of this paragraph to be the bringing of the appeal.
(5) In any case where such an appeal as is mentioned in paragraph (2) may be brought the notice served under paragraph (1) shall state—
(a)the right of appeal to a magistrates' court; and
(b)the period within which such an appeal may be brought.
