Registered Professionals who have failed to comply in this regard will be removed from the Register on 25 March 2010.
In order to re-register after removal, a re-registration form, accompanied by proof of payment for the re-registration fee of R1396.50 (including VAT), will be applicable. This is valid until 31 March 2010.
