  4. Issue of certificate of vending.
  1.       Every
  
  street vendor, identified under the survey carried out under sub-section (1 )
  
  of section 3, who has completed the age of fourteen years or such age as may be
  
  prescribed by the appropriate Government, shall be issued a certificate of
  
  vending by the Town Vending Committee, subject to such terms and conditions and
  
  within the period specified in the scheme including the restrictions specified
  
  in the plan for street vending:
  Provided that a person, whether or not included under the survey
  
  under sub-section (1 ) of section 3, who has been issued a certificate of
  
  vending before the commencement of this Act, whether known as licence or any
  
  other form of permission (whether as a stationary vendor or a mobile vendor or
  
  under any other category) shall be deemed to be a street vendor for that
  
  category for the period for which he has been issued such certificate of
  
  vending.
  1.     
  
   
  2.       Where,
  
  in the intervening period between two surveys, any person seeks to vend, the
  
  Town Vending Committee may grant a certificate of vending to such person,
  
  subject to the scheme, the plan for street vending and the holding capacity of
  
  the vending zones.
  3.       Where
  
  the number of street vendors identified under sub-section (1 ) or the
  
  number of persons seeking to vend under sub-section (2 ) are more than
  
  the holding capacity of the vending zone and exceeds the number of persons to
  
  be accommodated in that vending zone, the Town Vending Committee shall carry
  
  out a draw of lots for issuing the certificate of vending for that vending zone
  
  and the remaining persons shall be accommodated in any adjoining vending zone
  
  to avoid relocation.
