   1--Short title

   These regulations may be cited as the Prices Regulations 2001.

   3--Interpretation

   In these regulations--

   bread means a food product in the form of a loaf, roll, bun or other
   piece made by baking leavened dough prepared from flour, water and
   yeast or other leavening agent, with or without other ingredients.

   4--Prohibition on compensation to retailer for unsold bread

   (1) A person must not enter into a transaction to which this regulation
   applies or do anything pursuant to such a transaction (whether entered
   into before or after the commencement of this regulation).

   Maximum penalty: $750.

   (2) This regulation applies to an agreement, arrangement or
   understanding under which a person--

   (a) is to supply bread for sale by retail; or

   (b) is to purchase bread for sale by retail,

   and financial relief or compensation is to be directly or indirectly
   given or received in respect of any bread that, having been supplied
   for sale by retail, is not sold by retail.

   5--Prohibition on return of unsold bread

   (1) Subject to subregulation (2), if bread supplied for sale by retail
   is not sold by retail--

   (a) the supplier of the bread must not take back the bread or cause,
   suffer or permit another to take back the bread on the supplier's
   behalf; and

   (b) the retailer of the bread must not return the bread to the supplier
   or cause, suffer or permit the bread to be returned to the supplier or
   to be delivered to another on the supplier's behalf,

   whether or not financial relief or compensation is directly or
   indirectly given or received in respect of that bread.

   Maximum penalty: $750.

   (2) Subregulation (1) does not apply if the bread is returned because
   it does not conform to the type or quality for which the retailer
   contracted with the supplier.
