(a)any prescribed mandatory conditions which apply to the use and possession of air weapons, and

(b)if the person is under the age of 18, the conditions mentioned in section 7(5).

(4)A person who fails to comply with a condition mentioned in subsection (3) commits an offence.

(5)But it is not an offence under subsection (4) for a person to fail to comply with a condition mentioned in subsection (3) if—

(a)the person is entitled to use or possess an air weapon by virtue of an exemption under schedule 1, and

(b)the failure relates to the use or possession of an air weapon in accordance with the exemption.

(ii)the day on which the existing certificate is surrendered, cancelled or revoked.

(9)For the purposes of subsection (7)(b)(ii), where a person holds both a firearm certificate and a shot gun certificate—

(a)the surrender of one of the certificates does not end the transitional period, but
