CHAR-A-BANC REGULATION ACT (NORTHERN IRELAND) 1924 - SECT 2

Licensing days, appeals and offences.

2.(1) The [district council] shall fix one day in each of the months of April,
May and June in each year as the day for the granting of licences for
char-a-bancs under section seventy-nine of the principal Act, and may at their
discretion fix additional days for that purpose; and no such licence shall be
granted except on one of the days so fixed.

(2) Where, upon application for a licence in respect of a char-a-banc, the
[district council] either refuses to grant a licence or grants a licence
subject to conditions, in every case the applicant shall have a right of
appeal to the Ministry of Home Affairs for Northern Ireland from the decision
of the [district council], and that Ministry shall have power to make such
order thereon as it thinks fit, and the order shall be binding upon the
[district council] and the applicant. An order made by the said Ministry under
this sub-section shall be final and not subject to appeal to any court, and
may, on the application either of the said Ministry or of the applicant for
the licence, be enforceable (without prejudice to any other remedy) by writ of
mandamus.

(3) Where an offence against this Act, or against any byelaw made under
this Act or the principal Act, is alleged to have been committed in relation
to a char-a-banc, proceedings in respect of such offence may, if the hiring
takes place in the district of the [district council], be brought before and
determined by a court of summary jurisdiction having jurisdiction in the
district of the [district council], whether such offence is alleged to have
been committed within the district or not, and whether the person sought to be
made amenable resides within such jurisdiction or not.
