56N Direction to Link corporation after application to Minister
S. 56N inserted by No. 81/2006 s. 72.
The Link corporation may apply to the Minister for a direction under this section if—
a Utility has not completed the works required by a direction under section 56L within the period specified in the direction; or
the Link corporation believes on reasonable grounds that the works required by a direction under section 56L will not be completed within the period specified in the direction.
On an application under this section, the Minister, after consultation with the Utility Minister, may direct the Link corporation to carry out or complete the works required by the relevant direction under section 56L.
Without limiting subsection (2), a direction under this section may specify a period within which the works must be performed even if this is a different period from any period provided for in the relevant direction under section 56L.
If the Link corporation complies under a direction under this section with a requirement imposed on a Utility or any other person, the Utility or other person is not required to comply with that requirement.
