(L.N. 256 of 1987)
(3) The Registrar shall not be bound to recognize as such agent any person who has been convicted criminally or struck off the roll kept under and in accordance with the provisions of the Legal Practitioners Ordinance (Cap. 159) and of any regulations made thereunder or (during the term of his suspension) any person who has been suspended from acting as an attorney, solicitor, or proctor.
