These Regulations prescribe that a person shall not obtain or hold: (a) a national game licence whilst he is a licencee under a subsisting valid district game licence; or (b) a district game licence whilst he is a licencee under a subsisting valid national game licence. Notwithstanding these provisions, a person who is a licencee under a subsisting valid district game licence may surrender his district game licence to the Director of National Parks and Wildlife and, upon payment of the difference between the fee of a district game licence and the fee of a national game licence, may be issued with a national game licence. Endorsement relating to the killing, wounding or capturing of any animal, on a district game licence surrendered shall be recorded on the reverse of a national game licence issued under these Regulations. Offences and penalties are prescribed.
