PUBLIC HEALTH (IRELAND) ACT 1878 - SECT 268



268. Where any person deems himself aggrieved by the decision of the [district
council] in any case in which the [district council] are empowered to recover
in a summary manner any expenses incurred by them, or to declare such expenses
to be private improvement expenses, he may, within twenty-one days after
notice of such decision, address a memorial to the Local Government Board
stating the grounds of his complaint, and shall deliver a copy thereof to the
[district council]; the Local Government Board may make such order in the
matter as to the said Board may seem equitable, and the order so made shall be
binding and conclusive on all parties: Provided, that if such order should
repeal, in whole or in part, the decision appealed against, the
Local Government Board, before making such order, shall afford to the
[district council] opportunity of giving such evidence as it may desire in
support of its decision.

Any proceedings that may have been commenced for the recovery of such expenses
by the [district council] shall, on the delivery to them of such copy as
aforesaid, be stayed; and the Local Government Board may, if it thinks fit, by
its order direct the [district council] to pay to the person so proceeded
against such sum as the said Board may consider to be a just compensation for
the loss, damage, or grievance thereby sustained by him.
