Part VGeneral controls

62 Advertising by agents and developers

(1)

Any advertisement in respect of the business of an agent or a developer shall not be published without his authority.

(2)

A duly authorised advertisement in respect of the business of an agent or developer shall contain such details as are sufficient to identify the agent or developer, as the case may be.

(3)

A person who enters into a contract as a consequence of an advertisement which contravened subsection (2) is not thereby entitled to avoid the contract.

(4)

In a proceeding for a contravention of subsection (1) or (2) it is a defence if the accused establishes that he is a person whose business is to publish or arrange for the publication of advertisements and that he received the advertisement in the ordinary course of business and did not know and had no reason to suspect that its publication would amount to such a contravention.
