Section - 29 - Licensed Chemical Sellers.
(1) Notwithstanding section 27 where an application is made in the prescribed form by a person other than a pharmacist or body corporate, and the Council is satisfied that
(a) the applicant is fit to carry on the business of supplying by retail restricted drugs other than Class A or B drugs; and
(b) the area in which the applicant proposes to carry on that business is not sufficiently served by existing facilities for the retail supply of such drugs,
