This is the original version (as it was originally enacted).
(1)If, on an application made by the Director General, the court is satisfied—
(a)that there is a reasonable likelihood that a person will contravene a condition in a licence granted under section 5 or 6,
(b)that a person has contravened such a condition and there is a reasonable likelihood that the contravention will continue or be repeated, or
(c)that a person has contravened such a condition and there are steps that could be taken for remedying the contravention,
the court may grant an injunction restraining the contravention or, in Scotland, an interdict prohibiting the contravention or (as the case may be) make an order requiring the licensee, and any other person who appears to the court to have been party to the contravention, to take such steps as the court may direct to remedy it.
(2)In subsection (1) “the court” means the High Court or, in Scotland, the Court of Session.
(3)Any sum payable to the Secretary of State in accordance with a condition included in a licence by virtue of section 5(6) shall be recoverable by him as a debt due to him from the licensee (and the licensee’s liability to pay it shall not be affected by the licence ceasing for any reason to have effect).
