|
|
| |
(a) if the sum to which the order relates is repayable to the Commissioners by virtue of this Act by one county council, charge such sum and the interest thereon on the county fund of that council; and
|
|
| |
(b) if such sum is repayable to the Commissioners by virtue of this Act by two or more county councils, declare the proportions in which such sum is repayable by such councils and charge such sum and the interest thereon on the respective county funds of such councils in the proportions so declared; and
