WHEREAS the treaty of commerce and navigation set out in the
Schedule to the Anglo-Portuguese Commercial Treaty Act, 1914

Further limitation of the use of the description ""port.''

1.(1) The description "port" applied to wine the produce of
Portugal, imported into the United Kingdom after the commencement of
this Act, shall be deemed to be a false trade description within
the meaning of [the Trade Descriptions Act 1968], if the wine on
importation into the United Kingdom was not accompanied by a
certificate issued by the competent Portuguese authorities to the
effect that it was a wine to which by the law of Portugal the
description "port" may be applied, and that Act shall have effect
accordingly:

Provided that it shall be a good defence to any proceedings under
that Act in respect of such a description as aforesaid if it is
proved that the wine to which the description is applied is
intended solely for exportation from the United Kingdom.

(2) This provision is in addition to and not in derogation of any
of the provisions contained in the principal Act.

ANGLO-PORTUGUESE COMMERCIAL TREATY ACT 1916 - SECT 2
Short title, citation and commencement.

2.(1) This Act may be cited as the Anglo-Portuguese Commercial
Treaty Act, 1916, and the principal Act and this Act may be cited
together as the Anglo-Portuguese Commercial Treaty Acts, 1914 and
1916.
