(2)    Where any premises have been inspected in pursuance of paragraph (1) and the Minister is of opinion that such premises are not qualified for registration in the register specified in the application, the Minister shall give notice to that effect to the applicant and, if the Minister considers that the premises are qualified for registration in some other register, shall so notify the applicant, and such notice shall contain a statement that the applicant may, within 14 days after the service of the notice, make written representations in the matter to the Minister.

(3)    On receipt of any such written representations as aforesaid or at the expiration of the said period of 14 days (or such longer period as the Minister in his or her absolute discretion may allow), the Minister shall reconsider the application, together with any such representations, and, if the Minister thinks fit, shall cause a further inspection of the premises to be made.

(4)    If no written representations have been submitted to the Minister, or if the applicant declares himself or herself unwilling to accept registration or renewal of registration of the premises in such register as may have been specified by the Minister as the register in which the premises are considered to be qualified for registration, or if the Minister, having considered any representations submitted by the applicant, remains of opinion that the premises are not qualified for registration in the register specified in the application, the Minister shall refuse the application and shall notify the applicant accordingly:

Provided that where written representations have been submitted to the Minister, the Minister shall not refuse the application unless the Minister has caused a further inspection of the premises to be made and has considered the report made thereon.

(d)     may refuse an application for the registration or the renewal of registration of any premises if the Minister is of opinion that the name under which it is proposed that the premises be registered is in any way misleading or is otherwise undesirable.[7]
