Removal from register of patent agents and restoration.
130 . (1) The
[Controller] may remove the name of any person from the register when
[he] is satisfied, after giving that person a reasonable opportunity of being heard and after such further inquiry, if any, as
[he] thinks fit to make-
| (i) | - | that his name has been entered in the register by error on account of misrepresentation or suppression of material fact; and |
| (ii) | - | that he has been convicted of any offence and sentenced to a term of imprisonment or has been guilty of misconduct in his professional capacity which in the opinion of the [Controller] renders him unfit to be kept in the register. |
(2) The
[Controller] may, on application and on sufficient cause being shown, restore to the register the name of any person removed therefrom.
