This section applies to and in relation to an offence under section 19B(1) or 19C(1).
If a Part 3A product that contains a specified psychoactive substance (called in this section a Part 3A-SPS product) is found in any vehicle or trailer, that Part 3A-SPS product is presumed, until the contrary is proved, to be in the possession of the person in charge of the vehicle or trailer for the time being.
The presumption provided for in subsection (2) is not to be rebutted by proof that the accused never had physical possession of the Part 3A‑SPS product.
