Clause 45

If any medical practitioner is of the opinion that any person is not fit to be vaccinated, he shall forthwith deliver to that person or in the case of a child to the parent or guardian of the child a certificate in the prescribed form.

Such certificate shall remain in force for such period as may be prescribed.

Before the expiry of the prescribed period the person shall go, or the parent or guardian of the child shall take or cause the child to be taken, to a medical practitioner who shall then examine and vaccinate the person or child or give a further exemption certificate in respect of that person or child in such form as may be prescribed.

Any medical practitioner who issues a certificate under this section shall immediately send a copy thereof to the Director.
