When the question arises at any proceedings in a court of law whether or not a particular person is registered as a practitioner in respect of any profession, a document purporting to be a certificate issued by the registrar in terms of this section, in which it is certified that a named person is or is not registered as a practitioner in respect of a stated profession, shall, if the name of the first- mentioned person substantially corresponds to the name of the person so named, on its mere production be prima facie proof that the first-mentioned person is or is not registered as a practitioner in respect of the profession so stated, as the case may be.
