|
600.—(1) If it appears to the Board of Trade upon complaint made to them—
|
| |
(a) that a pilotage authority have without reasonable cause refused or neglected to examine a master or mate who has applied to them for the purpose; or
|
| |
(b) that a pilotage authority have without reasonable cause refused or neglected to grant a pilotage certificate after examination; or
|
| |
(c) that an examination of a master or mate has been unfairly or improperly conducted; or
|
| |
(d) that a pilotage authority have imposed unfair or improper terms or conditions on the granting of a certificate; or
|
| |
(e) that a pilotage certificate has been improperly withdrawn from the holder thereof,
|
| |
the Board of Trade, if the circumstances of the case appear to them to require it, may appoint persons to examine the master or mate, and, if he is found competent, grant him a pilotage certificate upon such terms and conditions as they think fit.
|
| |
(2) The pilotage certificate so granted shall contain the same particulars, be of the same effect, and be in force for the same period as a certificate granted by a pilotage authority, and may be renewed either by the pilotage authority of the district, or if the Board of Trade think fit by that Board, and the renewal, if it is granted by the Board of Trade, shall be endorsed on the certificate by some person appointed by the Board of Trade for the purpose, and, if it is granted by a pilotage authority, shall be endorsed on the certificate in the same manner as in the case of certificates of pilotage originally granted by them.
