The Minister may, at the time of the granting of a licence, attach to the licence such conditions as he shall think proper and shall specify in the licence. The Minister may, if he so thinks fit, grant exemption from the provisions of this Act in respect of the carrying on of any particular business or business of any particular class or kind (sect. 5).
