Subsection (2) applies where, in any proceedings for an offence under this Law, a non-compliance notice has taken effect against the person charged with the offence.
In proceedings referred to in subsection (1), the summary court may, whether or not the person charged with the offence is convicted of that offence, cancel or affirm the notice and, if it affirms the notice, it may do so either in its original form or with such modifications as the court may think fit.
If a person is convicted of an offence under this Law, the summary court may, in addition to or in place of any other sentence imposed on that person, make an order requiring the Board to remove that person's name from the register.
For purposes of clarification it is declared that even in cases where the summary court has ordered the removal of a name from the register and revocation of a licence, the Board shall retain the power to restore the registration and licence where the reason for revoking the licence no longer exists or there is sufficient reason to do so under this Law but this power shall be exercised subject to the restriction contained in section 15(9).
