205. An inspector carrying out the functions of office may enter premises where tree seedlings intended for non-ornamental uses are kept, at any reasonable time, or order any vehicle carrying such seedlings to be stopped for inspection or analysis of the seedlings.

If the inspector finds that the seedlings are affected by a disease or insects that may cause an epidemic, the inspector may seize the plants, forbid their sale or use, or order them to be treated or destroyed.

On request, the inspector must introduce himself or herself and produce a certificate of authority signed by the Minister.
