·         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.
