The Sanitary Authority may appoint a committee to
serve and receive notices, take proceedings, and empower
any officer of the authority to make complaints and take
proceedings in their behalf, and otherwise to execute the
Act (Sec. 99), and the Vestry have appointed their Sanitary
Committee to carry the Act into execution under this
provision.
The County Council may take proceedings where it has
been proved to their satisfaction that the Sanitary Authority
have made default in doing their duty under the
Act, and recover the expenses incurred from the authority
in default. (Sec. 100.)
The County Council may report to the Local Government
Board the default of any Sanitary Authority in
executing the Act, or enforcing any bye-law made in pursuance
thereof, and if such default cannot be remedied
under the other provisions of the Act, the Local Government
Board may make an order limiting the time for the
performance of the duty in default, and, if necessary,
enforce such order by writ of mandamus, or appoint the
County Council to perform such duty. (Sec. 101.)
A book is to be kept in which shall be entered all complaints
made of any infringement of the provisions of the
Act, or of any bye-laws made thereunder, and of nuisances.
All such complaints are to be forthwith investigated by
a Sanitary Inspector, and his reports, together with the
order of the Sanitary Authority thereon, are to be entered
in a book which is to be open to the inspection of any
inhabitant of the district and of any authorised officer of
the County Council. (Sec. 107.)
