S.L. 36.16 Art. 24Aircraft alighting elsewhere than at customs airport.

(1) Where an aircraft alights elsewhere than at a customs airport -

(a) the commander shall forthwith give notice to that effect to the responsible authority or a customs officer or an immigration officer or a police officer and, if the aircraft has alighted at an aerodrome, to the person in charge thereof;

(b) save for the purpose of paragraph (a), no person carried by the aircraft shall leave its vicinity unless authorised so to do by the medical officer, and any person so authorised shall inform such officer of his name and the address of his intended destination, but this paragraph shall not be construed as dispensing with the necessity to secure any consent arising under any other enactment, including any instrument having statutory effect;

(c) subject as aforesaid, these Regulations shall apply, with any necessary modifications, in relation to the aircraft, the persons carried thereon, and its stores, equipment and cargo, to the extent to which they are not required by a police officer or customs officer to proceed or, as the case may be, to be taken to a customs airport, as if the aircraft had alighted at a customs airport and for the purposes of such application the list of infected areas kept pursuant to regulation 5 shall be any list so kept by the medical officer or the responsible authority or, if there is no such list, any list so kept by the medical officer for the customs airport nearest to the place where the aircraft has alighted.

(2) If any person who has informed an officer pursuant to this regulation of the address of his intended destination arrives within fourteen days thereafter at some other address, he shall forthwith send particulars of that address to the medical officer of health of the responsible authority for the place at which he left the aircraft.
