Moderation of rates and charges
58 Moderation of rates and charges
Any person liable for any rates or charges under this Act or the special Act may apply to the Minister to review the rates levied or the scale of charges used by the undertakers.
The Minister may inquire into the matter and may, if he or she finds any impropriety or unreasonable excess, determine that the rates or charges be reduced or varied and provide for payment of the costs of the inquiry by the applicant or the undertakers.
A determination made under this section may be registered in the Supreme Court and enforced as a judgment of the Court.
The determination, in so far as it relates to rates and charges, operates, until it is discharged by the Minister, so as to disentitle the undertakers from recovering any greater amounts than those determined.
