The expenses recoverable by the authority, together with the interest accrued due, are, until recovered, a charge on the premises to which the notice related.
The charge takes effect when the demand for the expenses and interest becomes operative.
The authority have for the purpose of enforcing the charge the same powers and remedies, under the M1Law of Property Act 1925 and otherwise, as if they were mortgagees by deed having powers of sale and lease, of accepting surrenders of leases and of appointing a receiver.
The power of appointing a receiver is exercisable at any time after the expiration of one month from the date when the charge takes effect.
