Where a name is erased from the register in pursuance of this regulation, it shall not be again entered therein except by direction of the Governor.

  1. The Governor may in any case in which he thinks fit direct the restoration to the register of such name or entry erased therefrom, either without fee, or on payment of such fee not exceeding the registration fee, as he thinks fit, and the Registrar shall thereupon restore the name accordingly.

  2. The name of any person erased from the register at the request or with the consent of such person shall, unless it might if not so erased have been erased by the Registrar in pursuance of clause 15 or clause 16 of these regulations, be restored to the register by the Registrar on the application of the person concerned, and on payment of such fee, not exceeding the registration fee, as may from time to time be fixed.

  3. (1.)

(2.) The Registrar may also, if he thinks fit, refuse to recognize any company or firm as agent in respect of any such business as aforesaid if any person whom the Registrar could refuse to recognize as agent acts as director or manager of the company, or is a partner in the firm.
