(1) The following regulations shall apply to all premises registered in the register of non-manufacturing exporters, that is to say—
(a) butter containing water in excess of sixteen per cent. shall not be packed for sale or export or sold or exported or consigned for sale or export on or from the premises except subject to and in accordance with the prescribed conditions and subject to and in accordance with the provisions of the Sale of Food and Drugs Acts, 1875 to 1907;
(b) all butter exported or consigned for export from the premises shall, before it leaves the premises, be examined and classified subject to and in accordance with the prescribed conditions;
(c) all butter exported or consigned for export from the premises and also every package and wrapper containing the butter shall before it leaves the premises be marked with the marks (if any) prescribed by regulations made under this Act;
