43F Notification or registration under the single notification or registration scheme (1) Subject to subsection (2), the proprietor of a food business that operates one or more temporary food premises, mobile food premises or food vending machines, other than a proprietor to whom section 35A(3) or 35A(4) applies, must register the components of the business under this Division. (2) If all the components of a food business referred to in subsection (1) would, if registered individually, be exempt from the requirement to be registered, the proprietor of the food business other than a proprietor to whom section 35A(3) or 35A(4) applies must give notification of the operation of the components of the business under this Division. (3) If the food business is divided into autonomous divisions, the proprietor of the food business may register or give notification of the operation of— (a) the components of the food business under the one application or notification; or (b) the components of each division of the food business under a separate application or notification for each autonomous division. A charitable organisation may be subdivided into district branches with each branch preparing and selling food separately. Each branch may register its operation separately under this Division. (4) For the purposes of subsection (3), a division of a food business is autonomous if the food sold by the business is not ordinarily prepared, stored or handled by any other division of the food business.
