Regulations as to making and validity of order.
|
4. With respect to the making of an order by the Commissioners of Works under this Act and the validity thereof, the following regulations shall have effect; that is to say,
|
|
| |
(1.) The Commissioners of Works shall prepare a draft order, and shall specify therein—
|
|
| |
(a.) The pier or piers, whereof the maintenance is proposed to be committed by such order to a local authority, harbour authority, or trustees, and the local authority, harbour authority, or trustees, and the local authority, harbour authority, or trustees to whom it is proposed to commit such maintenance, and the mode of supplying from time to time any vacancy caused by the death or incapacity or refusal to act of any such trustee; and
|
|
| |
(b.) All property of every description, and all powers, rights, duties, interests, and liabilities proposed to be vested in and conferred and imposed on such local authority, harbour authority, or trustees; and
|
|
| |
(c.) Any other matters which the Commissioners of Works, with the consent of the Treasury, may think fit to insert in such order;
|
|
| |
but before making any such order the said Commissioners shall undertake any works which may appear to them necessary for repairing the structure of the pier or piers to which the order relates:
|
|
| |
(2.) The Commissioners of Works shall cause the said draft order to be published in such manner as they think best adapted for the purpose of making it known to all persons interested, and shall hear and consider any objections to such draft order which may be made to them in writing within such time, being not less than thirty days from the date of the first publication thereof, as they may by notice published as aforesaid specify:
|
|
| |
(3.) Having considered all such objections as aforesaid, the Commissioners of Works shall send the order as finally settled by them to the Treasury, and the Treasury, if they approve thereof (whether with or without modifications), shall cause the same, with such modifications (if any) as they think fit, as soon as possible to be laid upon the table of both Houses of Parliament:
|
|
| |
(4.) The order shall be of no validity until it has lain for forty days on the table of both Houses of Parliament; and if during the said forty days either House of Parliament passes a resolution against such order the same shall be void, but if during the said period of forty days no such resolution is passed, the order shall at the expiration of the said period be valid and take effect:
|
|
| |
(5.) The passing of a resolution by either House of Parliament against such order shall not prejudice the making of any subsequent order in pursuance of this Act in relation to the same subject-matter or any part thereof.
