Scale of charges for testing anchors and chain cables.

11.—(1) A licensed tester may make such charges, not exceeding the scale of maximum charges for the time being authorised by the Board of Trade for his establishment, as he thinks fit for testing any anchor or chain cable and, if it is stamped as proved, for stamping it.

(2) Every licensed tester shall fix in some conspicuous part of his testing establishment, in such a manner as to be clearly legible, a table of charges showing the authorised scale of maximum charges, and also the actual charges made by him.

(3) A licensed tester may apply to the Board of Trade to sanction any alteration in the scale of maximum charges authorised for his establishment, but no such alteration shall be sanctioned unless notice of the intended alteration has been attached to the table of charges for at least three months in such a manner as to be clearly legible.
