against the draft, or any part thereof, no further proceedings shall be
taken thereon, without prejudice to the making of any new draft scheme.
Where laud included in a town planning scheme is in the area or
more than one local authority, all necessary provisions may be made by
the scheme for constituting the joint body and giving them the necessary
powers and duties. Provided that, except with the consent of the
London County Council, no other local authority shall, as respects
any land in the County of London, prepare or be responsible for
enforcing the observance of a town planning scheme.
The responsible authority may at any time, after giving such notice
as may be provided by a town planning scheme and in accordance with
the provisions of the scheme—
(a) remove, pull down or alter any building or other work in the
area included in the scheme which is such as to contravene
the scheme, or in the erection or carrying out of which any
provision of the scheme has not been complied with; or
(b) execute any work which it is the duty of any person to
execute under the scheme, in any case where it appears to
the authority that delay in the execution of the work would
prejudice the efficient operation of the scheme.
Any expenses incurred by a responsible authority under this section
may be recovered from the persons in default, in such manner, and
subject to such conditions as may be provided by the scheme.
If any question arises whether any building or work contravenes a
town planning scheme, or whether any provision of a town planning
scheme is not complied with in the erection or carrying out of any such
building or work, that question shall be referred to the Local Government
Board.
Compensation may be given in respect of property injuriously
affected by the scheme, &c.
