67Loan of temporary sanitary conveniences1

A local authority may, at the request of the occupier of any premises connected with a cesspool, sewer or drain on which any work of maintenance, improvement or repair that necessitates the disconnection of the sanitary conveniences provided for or in connection with the premises is to be carried out—

a

by a local authority, or

b

by the owner or occupier of the premises in pursuance of section 59 above, supply on loan temporary sanitary conveniences in substitution for any sanitary conveniences so disconnected.

2

Subject to the following provisions of this section, the local authority may make reasonable charges for supplying, removing and cleansing any temporary sanitary conveniences lent under this section for more than seven days.

3

No charge may be made under subsection (2) above—

a

for the use of the temporary sanitary conveniences for the first seven days, or

b

in a case where the work is made necessary by a defect in a public sewer vested in and maintainable by the local authority (not being a length of sewer to which subsection (4) below applies).

4

No charge may be made under subsection (2) above where the work is made necessary—

a

by a defect in a length of a public sewer of a kind described in section 24(4) of the Public Health Act 1936 (which relates to sewers for the maintenance of which a local authority may make the owners of the premises served by the sewers pay), or

b

by a defect in a cesspool, private sewer or drain in respect of which the local authority have served a notice under section 59 above,

but, if the temporary sanitary conveniences are provided for a period of more than seven days, the reasonable expenses of supplying, removing and cleansing them are recoverable from the owner of the premises (but not any charge for the use of them for the first seven days).

5

In proceedings to recover expenses under subsection (4) above, the court may—

a

inquire whether the expenses ought to be borne wholly or in part by some person other than the defendant in the proceedings, and

b

make such order concerning the expenses or their apportionment as appears to the court to be just,

but the court shall not order the expenses or any part of them to be borne by any person other than the defendant in the proceedings unless the court is satisfied that that other person has had notice of the proceedings and an opportunity of being heard.
