Proposed text

—(1) If it appears to the Director that adequate facilities are not available for the safe disposal or accumulation of radioactive waste, the Director may provide such facilities or may arrange for the provision thereof by such persons as the Director may think fit.(2) The Director may make reasonable charges for the use of any facilities provided by him or in accordance with arrangements made by him under this section or, in the case of facilities provided otherwise than by the Director, may direct that reasonable charges for the use of the facilities be made by the person providing them in accordance with any such arrangements.(3) If there is radioactive waste on any premises and the Director is satisfied that the waste ought to be disposed of but by reason that the premises are unoccupied or that the occupier is absent, or is insolvent, or for any other reason, it is unlikely that the waste will be lawfully disposed of unless the Director exercises his powers under this subsection, the Director shall have the power to dispose of that radioactive waste in such manner as the Director thinks fit, and to recover from the occupier of the premises or, if the premises are unoccupied, from the owner thereof, any expenses reasonably incurred by the Director in disposing of it.(4) For the purposes of this section, “owner” means the person for the time being receiving the rent for the premises in connection with which the word is used, whether in his own account or as agent or trustee for any other person or who would so receive the rent if the premises were let to a tenant and shall include the person whose name is entered in the Valuation List authenticated under section 15 of the Property Tax Act [Cap. 254].(5) Subject to section 21, the decision of the Director shall be final.
