16. Amendment of section 20 of the principal enactment

Official English translation. Where it differs from the Sinhala or Tamil text, the Act itself says which text prevails.

Section 20 of the principal enactment is hereby amended in subsection (2) of that section, by the substitution for all the words “the Director may,” to the end of that subsection, of the words “or within any extended period given by the Director-General, cancel the permit issued to that person. Notice of such cancellation, stating reasons therefor, shall be sent to him by registered post to the address stated by the permit holder in the application submitted by him for the permit or to such other address as intimated by him in writing, to the Director-General.”.
