This is the original version (as it was originally enacted).

The registrar may require the applicant to amend his application so as to conform with the requirements of this Act.

(4)An application for registration as a registered user which has been determined by the registrar but not finally determined before the commencement of this Act shall be dealt with under the old law; and sub-paragraph (2) above shall apply in relation to any resulting entry in the register.
