11 Defences against certain proceedings

In any proceedings instituted against an undertaker for an offence against section 8(6) or (8), it is a defence for the undertaker to prove that —

(a)

the supplying of gas at less than the relevant approved minimum heating value which gave rise to the proceedings was caused by circumstances over which the undertaker had no control and could not reasonably have been expected to have exercised control; and

(b)

he notified the Director forthwith upon his becoming aware of those circumstances.

[Section 11 amended: No. 89 of 1994 s. 93.]
