Details to be included in register (2) The authorising body must include in the register the following details for each relevant authorisation given to an authorised person for the event: (a) the name and principal place of business of the authorised person; (b) the protected indicia or images for the event that are covered by the authorisation; (c) the circumstances in which the authorised person is authorised to use those indicia or images for commercial purposes; (d) if the authorisation is to use the indicia or images only during a specified period—that period; (e) the date on which the details are included; (f) any other matter prescribed by the rules. (3) If a relevant authorisation ceases to be in force for an authorised person, the authorising body for the event must update the register to include the date of effect of that cessation. Publishing the register (4) The authorising body must publish the register (including as updated under subsection (3)) on the authorising body’s website and in any other manner prescribed by the rules.
