Power of Crown to disclaim title to property vesting under s.6. 7.(1) Where any property vests in the Crown under section 6 of the Crown's title thereto under that section may be disclaimed by a notice signed by the Treasury Solicitor. (2) Where a notice of disclaimer under this section is executed as respects any property, that property shall be deemed not to have vested in the Crown under section 6, and sub-sections (3), (7) and (8) of section 291 of the Act of 1960 and section 4 shall apply in relation to the property as if it had been disclaimed under section 291 (1) of the Act of 1960 immediately before the dissolution of the company. (3) The right to execute a notice of disclaimer under this section may be waived by or on behalf of the Crown either expressly or by taking possession or other act evincing that intention. (4) A notice of disclaimer under this section shall be of no effect unless it is executed within twelve months of the date on which the vesting of the property as aforesaid came to the notice of the Treasury Solicitor, or, if an application in writing is made to the Treasury Solicitor by any person interested in the property requiring him to decide whether he will or will not disclaim, within a period of three months after the receipt of the application or such further period as may be allowed by the court which would have had jurisdiction to wind up the company if it had not been dissolved. (5) A statement in a notice of disclaimer of any property under this section that the vesting of the property came to the notice of the Treasury Solicitor on a specified date or that no such application as aforesaid was received by him with respect to the property before a specified date shall, until the contrary is proved, be sufficient evidence of the fact stated. (6) A notice of disclaimer under this section shall be delivered to the registrar of companies for registration, and copies thereof shall be published in the Belfast Gazette and sent to any persons who have given the Treasury Solicitor notice that they claim to be interested in the property. (7) This section shall apply to property vested in the Crown as aforesaid at the passing of this Act, and where the vesting came to the notice of the Treasury Solicitor more than six months before that passing notice of disclaimer under this section may (except where an application is made to him under sub-section (4)) be executed at any time within six months thereafter.
