Limitation on number of mines which a person may manage.

5.(1) No person shall, without the approval of the Ministry, be manager of

for the time being in use at all the mines of which he is manager lie within a
circle whose radius is two miles.

(2) Where a person is manager of two or more mines and it appears to

is the manager of such of those mines as may be specified in the notice shall
not also be the manager of the others or of such of them as may be so
