19E.—(1) During the initial period, the appointed person must if asked to do so by the union (or unions) send to any worker—N.I.
(a)whose name and home address have been passed on to him under paragraph 19D(4), and
(b)who is (so far as the appointed person is aware) still a relevant worker,
any information supplied by the union (or unions) to the appointed person.
(2) The costs of the appointed person shall be borne—
(a)if the application under paragraph 19C was made by one union, by the union, and
(b)if that application was made by more than one union, by the unions in such proportions as they jointly indicate to the appointed person or, in the absence of such an indication, in equal shares.
(3) The appointed person may send to the union (or each of the unions) a demand stating his costs and the amount of those costs to be borne by the recipient.
(4) In such a case the recipient must pay the amount stated to the person sending the demand and must do so within the period of 15 working days starting with the day after that on which the demand is received.
(5) If the amount stated is not paid in accordance with sub-paragraph (4) it shall, if a county court so orders, be recoverable by execution issued from that court or otherwise as if it were payable under an order of that court.
(6) Where an amount is recoverable under sub-paragraph (5) execution may be carried out, to the same extent and in the same manner as if the union were a body corporate, against any property held in trust for the union other than protected property as defined in Article 23(2) of the 1992 Order.
(7) References to the costs of the appointed person are to—
(a)the costs wholly, exclusively and necessarily incurred by the appointed person in connection with handling during the initial period communications between the union (or unions) and the relevant workers,
(b)such reasonable amount as the appointed person charges for his services, and
(c)such other costs as the union (or unions) agree.]
