106.— (1) The register which, immediately before the commencement of this section, was known as the register of patent agents shall continue to be known as such and to be maintained by the Controller (which register is in this Part referred to as "the register"). (2) Subject to the subsequent provisions of this section— (a) a person acting for gain shall not, either alone or in partnership with any other person, practise, describe himself or hold himself out as a patent agent, or permit himself to be so described or held out, unless he is for the time being registered as a patent agent in the register, or, in case he is a member of a partnership holding itself out as patent agents, unless he and all his partners are so registered; (b) a company acting for gain shall not practise, describe itself or hold itself out or permit itself to be described or held out as aforesaid unless every director of the company and, if the company has a manager who is not a director, that manager, is registered as aforesaid.
b) Si, à un moment quelconque, le contrôleur convainc le tribunal que la personne en question a tardé indûment à présenter sa requête, le tribunal, sauf s’il estime qu’une raison valable justifie une décision contraire, déclare que le contrôleur était fondé à rendre une décision en vertu du présent article à l’égard de ladite personne, et ou bien (selon ce que le tribunal peut considérer comme opportun) donne pour instruction au contrôleur de radier le nom de cette personne du registre, ou bien donne pour instruction que, pendant une période déterminée (commençant au terme d’un délai minimal de sept jours après la décision du tribunal), l’inscription du nom de cette personne au registre ne produira aucun effet.
