Defence of due diligence

19.—(1) In proceedings for an offence under any provision of this Order mentioned in paragraph (2) it shall be a defence for the Council to prove that it took all reasonable precautions and exercised all due diligence to avoid the commission of such an offence.

(2) The provisions referred to in paragraph (1) are—

  • article 13 (provision against danger to navigation);

  • article 15 (lights on tidal works during construction); and

  • article 16 (permanent lights on tidal works).

(3) If in any case the defence provided by paragraph (1) involves the allegation that the commission of the offence was due to the act or default of another person, the Council shall not, without leave of the court, be entitled to rely on that defence unless, within a period of 7 clear days before the hearing, it has served on the prosecutor a notice in writing giving such information as was then in its possession that would identify, or assist in the identification of, that other person.
