Paragraph 8 Power of the court to require matter to be remedied

Changes not yet applied. Later legislation changes this provision in ways not yet written into the text below:

(1)

Where an application is made for the forfeiture of any equipment in respect of any matters which it appears to the court to be matters which it is in the power of any person who appears or who is entitled to appear to show cause why such equipment should not be forfeited to remedy, the court may, instead of ordering the equipment to be forfeited, order him, within such time as may be fixed by the order, to take such steps as may be specified in the order for remedying the said matters.

(2)

The time fixed by an order under sub-paragraph (1) above may be extended or further extended by order of the court on an application made before the end of that time as originally fixed or as extended under this sub-paragraph, as the case may be.
