Sale of Drugs 11

Where regulations made under this Act contain provisions prescribing the composition of, or prohibiting or restricting the addition of any substance to, any drug, a purchaser of the drug shall, unless the contrary be proved, be deemed for the purposes of this section to have demanded a drug complying with the provisions of such regulations.

In proceedings under this section it shall not be a defence to allege that the purchaser bought for analysis or examination and therefore was not prejudiced.
