(d)without reasonable cause refused or failed to renew a pilotage certificate,
or, having obtained possession of any such certificate, refused or failed to
return it; or

(e)without reasonable cause suspended or revoked a pilotage certificate; or

(f)in any other manner failed properly to perform their duties under this Act
with respect to the matters above-mentioned in this section, or improperly

(2) If a pilotage authority refuse or fail to give effect to any such order of
the Board of Trade, the Board of Trade may, for the purpose of giving effect
to the order, exercise any powers of the pilotage authority, and anything done
by the Board of Trade in the exercise of those powers shall have the same
effect as if it had been done by the pilotage authority.
