(2) Any register or record required to be kept by or under this Act may be kept either by making entries in bound books or by recording the matters in question in any other manner provided such recording is readily accessible and readily convertible into written form in an official language of the State.

(3) Any duty imposed by this Act to allow inspection of, or to furnish a copy of, a record, or any part of it, is to be treated as a duty to allow inspection of, or to furnish, a reproduction of the recording or of the relevant part of it in a written form in an official language of the State.

(4) Where any register or record required to be kept by or under this Act is not kept by making entries in a bound book but by some other means, adequate precautions shall be taken by the person required to keep the register or record for guarding against falsification and for facilitating the discovery of any such falsification.
