FIREARMS REGULATION 2017 - REG 6
Restriction on authority conferred by category H licence
6 Restriction on authority conferred by category H licence
(1) The genuine reason of business or employment does not, in relation to a
category H licence or an application for such a licence, include business or
employment that constitutes any other genuine reason. Note : Section 16 of the
Act provides that a category H licence must not be issued unless the genuine
reason established by the applicant is sport/target shooting, business or
employment or firearms collection. The genuine reasons specified in section 12
of the Act are each mutually exclusive.
(2) Accordingly, a category H licence
issued to a person who has established business or employment as the genuine
reason for being issued with the licence does not authorise the possession or
use of a registered pistol for a purpose that is a genuine reason other than
business or employment. Note : For example, the licensee is not authorised to
use the pistol for the purposes of-- (a) hunting (including the control or
suppression of vermin or pest animals) or fishing, or
(b) farming or grazing
activities (including the destruction of diseased or injured animals).
