# Prize Courts Act 1915, Section 3: Supplemental powers of prize courts.


(1) Where a prize court under this Act orders the remission of any proceedings, or declares that any order or decree is enforceable by another prize court, the first-mentioned court may order the subject-matter of the proceedings, or of the order or decree, to be removed, in such manner and subject to such conditions as the court thinks fit, into the jurisdiction of the other court, and, where any such order of removal is made, either court may direct that any expenses incurred in the removal shall be borne by the cargo or any part of the cargo or the ship or the aircraft in such manner as the court thinks proper.
(2) For the purpose of the voyage of a ship or aircraft from the jurisdiction of one court to that of another under such an order of removal, the ship or aircraft, if not a British ship or aircraft, shall be treated as if it were a British ship or aircraft registered in the United Kingdom.
(3) The power of His Majesty in Council to make rules for regulating the procedure and practice of prize courts shall extend to making rules for carrying this Act into effect.
(4) The powers conferred by this Act are without prejudice to any other powers which the High Court in England may possess for the like purposes independently of this Act, and to the obligation imposed on prize courts by section nine of the Naval Prize Act 1864.
