Tolls, rates and rent.
6 & 7 Will. 4 c. 108.
|
6.—(1) The Chief Secretary may, with the approval of the Treasury, fix the tolls and rates to be paid by vessels using any certified work, and on all or any live stock, fish, goods or articles landed or shipped at any certified work, and, for the purpose of enforcing payment thereof, section thirteen of the Public Works (Ireland) Act, 1836 (which provides for the appointment of collectors and enforcing payment of tolls), is incorporated with this Act.
|
|
| |
(2) The tolls and rates payable in respect of a certified work and received by the Board of Works shall be paid or credited by them to the council of the county interested in the work, or, where more than one county is so interested, to the councils of the interested counties respectively, in the same proportions as the respective county contributions of those councils in respect of the work:
|
|
| |
Provided that, if in any year the total amount of tolls and rates received by the Board of Works in respect of the work exceeds the total amount of the said county contribution or contributions, the balance shall be carried to the general maintenance fund under this Act.
|
|
| |
(3) The last preceding subsection shall apply, with such modifications as the Treasury may in each case sanction, to any rent reserved by a lease of a certified work, or the revenue thereof, in like manner as it applies to the said tolls and rates.
