Apprenticeship Ordinance

(1)
Where the employer of a registered apprentice is a partnership and any change
                takes place in the partners, the contract of apprenticeship to which the partnership
                was a party shall not be determined by such change if the trade or occupation in
                which the apprentice was employed is carried on by the new partners. Such new
                partners shall be the new employer and the contract shall be binding on them as if
                they were a party to the contract in place of the partnership.
(2)
Where under subsection (1) a registered contract of apprenticeship binds the
                new partners, they shall, within 30 days after the date of the change in the
                partners, notify the Director in writing of such change and the date thereof. A
                notification by any one of the partners shall be sufficient.
(Amended

The Director shall, on receipt of a notification under subsection (2), enter in
                the

)
(a)
a note of the change in the partners and the date thereof; and
(b)
the names of the new partners.
(4)
When the names of the new partners are registered under subsection (3), the
                Director shall notify in
writing—
(Amended
13 of 1982 s. 11
)
(a)
such partners; and
(b)
the apprentice and his guardian (if any),
of such
                registration.
(5)
A new partner who contravenes subsection (2) shall be guilty of an offence and
                shall be liable on conviction to a fine at level 1.
