I need a freelance lawyer to so some research on how to circumvent the legal system with regard to selling tobacco in the UK. Please have a look at... [login to view URL]
Particular attention should be paid to the following points on that webpage...
1. "You may wish to point out to your customers that duty only becomes due once the tobacco can be smoked i.e. when the cured tobacco leaves have been shredded. There is no duty on tobacco seeds, which are quite legal to buy, or on the tobacco plants themselves."
2. "Tobacco products which are intended to be sold or given away will be subject to the full rigours of the existing system (and any other legislative requirements such as labelling or packaging)."
What I need from this is first of all to know whether the legal system can be circumvented and second of all what must be done to stay on the right side of the law.
Happy Bidding!
