Section 24

Subject to section 23(1), a person who has not obtained the necessary practical experience prescribed by the rules of the Society but who has passed in accordance with those rules such examinations in accountancy and other matters (if any) as may be prescribed, may on application to the Council be registered as a provisional member of the Society.

On being so registered that person shall have the same rights of membership as a registered member except that he shall not be entitled to vote at any meeting of the Society or to carry out any duty reserved to any member of the Society by any written law and (when referring to his membership) may only describe himself as a provisional member of the Society and shall not be entitled to describe himself as either a public accountant or a registered accountant.
