Applications for registration

8.—(1) An application for a registration under section 7 must—
 * (a) be made before 30 June of the year immediately after the trigger year;
 * (b) identify the person and the business facility in question;
 * (c) contain any information prescribed by regulations for assessing applications made under this section, and any other information required by the Agency to assess the particular application; and
 * (d) be in the form and manner required by the Agency.
