(1)This section applies to any expenses incurred by the Health and Safety Executive (“the Executive”) and any expenses incurred by the Health and Safety Commission (“the Commission”) which, in either case, the Executive may determine to be incurred wholly or partly in connection with—
(a)the carrying into effect of such of the provisions of this Act as are mentioned in Schedule 1 to the M1Health and Safety at Work etc. Act 1974; or
(b)the carrying out of research into nuclear safety at the direction of the Commission.
(2)Without prejudice to the generality of subsection (1) of this section, the reference in that subsection to expenses incurred by the Executive includes any sums paid by it by way of remuneration, allowances or other payments to inspectors appointed under the Health and Safety at Work etc. Act 1974.
(3)In such cases and to such extent as it may appear to the Executive appropriate to do so, the Executive shall require a person who has applied for a nuclear site licence to repay to it so much of any expenses to which this section applies as may appear to it to be attributable to dealing with the application.
(4)In such cases and to such extent as it may appear to the Executive to be appropriate to do so, the Executive shall require a person to whom a nuclear site licence has been granted to repay to it—
(a)so much of any expenses to which this section applies as may appear to it to be attributable to any nuclear installation in respect of which the licence has been granted; and
(b)so much of any expenses to which this section applies which are not otherwise recoverable under this section as it thinks fit.
(5)A person shall comply with any requirement made of him under this section.

(8)Where a person has made a payment under subsection (7) of this section on account of an anticipated liability, then—
(a)if he does not become subject to the liability, the Executive shall be liable to repay the payment to him; and
(b)if the amount of the liability to which he becomes subject is less than the amount paid under that subsection, the Executive shall be liable to repay the difference to him.]
