Clause 66

Any person who falsely represents that a design applied to any article disposed of by him for value is registered in respect of that article shall be guilty of an offence and shall be liable on conviction to a fine not exceeding $10,000 or to imprisonment for a term not exceeding 12 months or to both.

For the purposes of subsection (1), a person shall be deemed to represent that a design applied to any article is registered in respect of that article, if there is stamped, engraved, or impressed on or otherwise applied to the article the word “registered” or anything expressing or implying that the design applied to the article has been registered in respect of that article.

Any person who, after the right in a registered design has expired, marks any article to which the design has been applied with the word “registered”, or anything implying that there is a subsisting right in the design under this Act, or causes any such article to be so marked, shall be guilty of an offence and shall be liable on conviction to a fine not exceeding $10,000 or to imprisonment for a term not exceeding 12 months or to both.
