(5) A licence under paragraph (1) shall not be granted or renewed unless the Council is satisfied that the mobile van to which the licence relates conforms to the plan approved under paragraph (3), or in the case of the renewal of any such licence where an alteration of, or addition to, the mobile van to which the licence relates has been made, unless the Council is satisfied that the same has been made in accordance with paragraph (4).

10. The Council may upon payment of the fee specified in the Third Schedule grant a temporary licence to any person, authorizing him to hawk in any particular place or area not being a place or area in respect of which a licence is concurrently held by any other person for any period not exceeding 1 month, subject to any conditions the Council thinks fit to specify in the licence.

11. The Council may without charge of any fee issue to a licensee a pitch card in respect of any pitch or wall stall allocated to him for his use.

12. Where a licence or a pitch card has been lost, destroyed or defaced, the Council shall issue a duplicate of such licence or pitch card as the case may be, upon payment of the fee specified in the Third Schedule.

13. (1) A licence shall be terminated by the death of the hawker to whom it was issued.

(2) Where a licence is cancelled or otherwise terminated, otherwise than by reason of the misconduct of the hawker to whom it was issued, the Council may in its discretion refund to such hawker or to his legal personal representative a sum equivalent to that proportion of the fee paid in respect of the licence that the period for which the licence would otherwise have remained in force bears to the period for which the licence was granted:

Provided that the period for which the licence would otherwise have remained in force shall be reckoned in months and calculated to the nearest month and such refund shall be reckoned in dollars calculated to the nearest dollar.

13A. (1) Where, after the commencement* of the Hawker (New Territories) (Amendment) Regulations 1982, a licence is cancelled or terminated for any reason other than the death of the licensee, the holder of the licence shall surrender it to the Council not later than 30 days after the cancellation or termination.
