Defence Forces (Temporary Provisions) Act, 1923

Annual list of keepers of victualling houses liable to billets.

171.—(1) The police authority for any place may cause annually a list to be made out of all keepers of victualling houses within the meaning of this Act, in such place or any particular part thereof, liable to billets under this Act, specifying the situation and character of such victualling house, and the number of soldiers and horses who may be billeted on the keeper thereof.

(2) The police authority shall cause such list to be kept at some convenient place open for inspection at all reasonable times by persons interested, and any person who feels aggrieved either by being entered in such list, or by being entered to receive an undue proportion of officers, soldiers, or horses, may complain to a Court of Summary Jurisdiction, and the Court after such notice as the Court think necessary to persons interested, may order the list to be amended in such manner as the Court may think just.
