Expenses in Dublin Union.
|
6.—(1) For the purpose of this section the Dublin Union shall be divided into two portions (in this section referred to as “districts”) as follows, that is to say:—
|
| |
(a) the area consisting of the County Borough of Dublin, the Urban District of Rathmines and Rathgar and the Urban District of Pembroke shall form one such district, and
|
| |
(b) the remainder of the Dublin Union shall form the other such district.
|
| |
(2) The whole of the expenses incurred by the Board of Guardians of the Dublin Union under this Act in or in relation to the granting of relief under this Act to destitute poor persons in either district shall be raised equally over such district.
|
| |
(3) Where any expenses are incurred by the Board of Guardians of the Dublin Union in or in relation to the granting of relief under this Act to destitute poor persons in the said union generally or to destitute poor persons in an area including the whole or portion of one district and also the whole or portion of the other district, such expenses shall, subject to such regulations, if any, as may be made by the Minister in that behalf, be apportioned by the Board of Guardians between the two districts in such proportions as shall seem to the Board just and proper.
|
| |
(4) The Minister may make regulations prescribing the manner in which the Board of Guardians of the Dublin Union shall make any apportionment required by the foregoing sub-section.
|
| |
(5) No rate raised in any portion of the Dublin Union shall be invalidated solely by reason of a failure to apportion between the two districts any expenses incurred under this Act by the Board of Guardians or of an error in such an apportionment.
|
| |
(6) The provisions of the enactments dealing with the estimating, demanding, and raising of the expenses of a board of guardians, shall, in so far as they relate to the Board of Guardians of the Dublin Union, be deemed to be modified so as to give effect to this section.
