The Director shall, at such place as the Director shall authorise, issue dog licences and identification tags.
A dog licence shall be for a period of one year and may be renewed in accordance with this section.
An application for a dog licence or a renewal of a dog licence shall be in such form as the Director shall determine and shall contain the name and the address of the applicant and, if the dog is not kept at that address, the address at which it is kept.
A dog licence shall be in a form determined by the Director but shall be numbered and accompanied by an identification tag which shall bear the same number as that on the licence and which shall be suitable for attachment to a dog's collar.
If the Director is satisfied that a dog's identification tag has been lost the Director may, on production of the dog licence and the appropriate fee, issue a new identification tag in respect of the dog.
The Director shall keep registers and records of dogs, dog keepers and dog licences as the Minister shall direct.
