If you are either selling your Health premises or purchasing an existing premises, a transfer of the registration must take place.
The first step to transferring a business is to organise a pre-transfer inspection by a Council’s Environmental Health Officer. An “Authority to disclose information and document" form needs to be completed and appropriate fee paid, allowing an officer to complete an inspection and provide a report to the proposed proprietor of the condition of the premises.
Once the inspection has been carried out and items have been completed on the inspection report, transfer of registration form and appropriate fee needs to be completed. The transfer form will provide all the details of the new proprietor.
Once the form has been assessed by the Environmental Health Officer, a new Health Act Registration Certificate will be submitted with the new proprietor details.
