·         Section 3 establishes the Valuers Registration Board which shall have the responsibility of regulating the activities and conduct of registered valuers.

·         Under section 7, the registrar shall issue a certificate of registration for valuers who are registered and keep a register of valuers under section 6.

·         Section 21 provides that unregistered persons shall not practice as valuers.

·         Section 22 provides that no person shall carry on business as a practising valuer unless there is a guarantee bond or a policy of insurance entered or issued by an insurance company approved by the Valuers Registration Board. This is a requirement for indemnity on the part of practising valuers.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://cahf.gitbook.io/kenya-legal-policy-and-institutional-review/annex-e-laws-and-policies-relating-to-professionals-in-housing/8.-valuers-act-1985-cap-532.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
