Dear Sir

APPLICATION FOR A LICENCE TO SELL BOOKS, T-SHIRTS AND STICKERS AT YIO CHU KANG STADIUM ON 28 APRIL 2001

I refer to your letter dated 18 April applying for a licence to sell books, T-shirts and stickers at the Yio Chu Kang Stadium on 28 April 2001.

2 A licence is required under the Environmental Public Health Act (EPHA) for the sale of such goods in a public place. However, in view of the fact that we do not foresee any public health implications from the sale of the articles that you propose, I will, under the provision of section 112 of the EPHA, grant you an exemption for a licence to sell on 28 April 2001.

Yours faithfully

WANG NAN CHEE
COMMISSIONER OF PUBLIC HEALTH
