(b) that he holds a qualification or has passed examinations necessary for obtaining some qualification granted outside Nigeria which is for the time being accepted by the Board as respects the capacity in which, if employed, he is to serve, the Board may, if it thinks fit, give a direction that he shall be temporarily registered as an estate surveyor and valuer.
