Refusal to make development grant. |
6.—(1) The Board shall not refuse to make a development grant by reason only of the fact that the bog to which the application for the grant relates is capable of and suitable for development by the Board. | |
(2) Notwithstanding subsection (1) of this section but subject to section 2 (4) of this Act, the Board may refuse to make a development grant in relation to— | ||
