The Registrar of Brands, appointed under section 3, shall keep separate registers for the registration of brands of horses, cattle and sheep and goats (sect. 4). An owner of such animals may make application in writing to the Registrar to be registered as the proprietor of a brand. Such brand may be in respect of any one or more of such classes of animals. Any person requiring a brand may, on application, have a brand allotted to him by the Registrar, but may also submit to the Registrar a brand of his selection which, if acceptable to the Registrar, may be registered as the applicant's brand. The Registrar shall issue certificates of registration and compile each year a Brand Directory (sects. 8 and 9). Remaining provisions concern transfer of brands, use of registered brand by unauthorised person, prescribe penalties for wrongfully using brands not registered, and grant regulation making powers to the Minister.
