HOUSE OF LORDS COSTS TAXATION ACT 1849 - SECT 10

Report to clerk of the Parliaments, and certificate of amount.

10. If any bill of costs taxable by virtue of this Act, or of the
House of Commons Costs Taxation Act, 1847, shall comprise any costs, charges,
and expenses incurred in respect of a private bill, but not taxable by virtue
of the Act in pursuance whereof such bill shall come to be taxed, it shall be
lawful for the taxing officer of the House of Lords, or for the taxing officer
of the House of Commons, as the case may be, either to tax and settle such
last-mentioned costs, charges, and expenses, or to request the taxing officer
of the other House of Parliament, or the proper officer of any court having
such an officer, to assist him in taxing and settling any part of such bill;
and such officer so requested shall thereupon proceed to tax and settle the
same, and shall return the same, with his opinion thereupon, to the officer
who shall have so requested him to tax and settle the same; and in taxing such
costs, charges, and expenses the taxing officer of the House of Lords and the
taxing officer of the House of Commons respectively shall have the same
powers, and may receive the same fees in respect of such taxation, as if such
costs, charges, and expenses were taxable by virtue of this Act, or of the
House of Commons Costs Taxation Act, 1847, as the case may be; and the proper
officer of any court so requested to tax the same shall have the same powers,
and may receive the same fees, as upon a reference from the court of which he
is such officer.
