Registration of societies and branches.

8.(1) On being satisfied that a society or branch has complied with the
provisions of this Act as to registration, the registrar shall register the
society or branch and issue to that society or branch an acknowledgment of
registration which, in the case of a society, shall specify the designation
thereof according to the classification in section 1.

(2) An acknowledgment under subsection (1) shall be conclusive evidence that
the society or branch therein mentioned is duly registered under this Act,
unless it is proved that the registration of the society or, in the case of a
branch, the society of which it is a branch, has been suspended or cancelled.

(3) An appeal shall lie to the High Court from a refusal to register a society
or branch and, if a refusal to register a society or branch is overruled on
appeal, the registrar shall register the society or branch and issue an
acknowledgment of registration under subsection (1) to the society or branch.
