Power to modify schemes in certain cases.
|
6.—(1) If an order under subsection four of section eight or under section thirty-nine of the principal Act, which, if no petition were presented, would take effect without confirmation by Parliament, is petitioned against, the confirming authority or the Local Government Board, as the case may be, may, if they think fit, on the application of the local authority, make any modifications in the scheme to which the order relates, for the purpose of meeting the objections of the petitioner, and withdraw the order sanctioning the original scheme, substituting for it an order sanctioning the modified scheme.
|
|
| |
(2) The same procedure shall be followed as to the publication and giving notices, and the same provisions shall apply as to the presentation of petitions and the effect of the order, in the case of the order sanctioning the modified scheme, as in the case of the order sanctioning the original scheme, but no petition shall be received or have any effect except one which was presented against the original order, or one which is concerned solely with the modifications made in the scheme as sanctioned by the new order.
