(2)The fact that proceedings on an application under subsection (1) of this section (hereafter in this section referred to as “enforcement proceedings”) are in progress in respect of any waterway or any part of a waterway, or that the court has in any such proceedings imposed any requirement on the Board, shall not prevent the Minister [F1or, in relation to any waterway or any part of a waterway in Scotland, the Scottish Ministers] from making an order in respect of that waterway or part under section 104(3) or 105(3) of this Act; but—
(3)If a relevant order is pending at the time when enforcement proceedings are instituted, or if, at any time after enforcement proceedings have been instituted and before the court has imposed any requirement on the Board in the proceedings, the Minister [F2or, in relation to any waterway or part of a waterway in Scotland, the Scottish Ministers] notifies the Board that he is [F2or, as the case may be, they are] considering the making of a relevant order and gives the court such a certificate as is mentioned in subsection (4) of this section—
(4)The said certificate is a certificate in writing to the effect that it appears to the Minister [F3or, as the case may be, the Scottish Ministers] that the imposition of any requirement on the Board on the basis of their existing duty would result in their incurring substantial expense and that, having regard to their financial position and their duty under section 18 of the Act of 1962 and section 41 of this Act, it would be unreasonable for them to bear that expense without a grant or further grant under section 43 of this Act.
(5)In subsection (3) of this section “relevant order” means, in relation to any enforcement proceedings, an order under section 104(3) or 105(3) of this Act in relation to the waterway or part of a waterway which is the subject of the proceedings; and for the purposes of that subsection an order is pending during the period of three months beginning with the day on which the Minister notifies [F4or, as the case may be, the Scottish Ministers notify] the Board that he is [F4or, as the case may be, they are]considering the making of the order and, if before the expiration of that period notice of the proposed order is published under Schedule 13 to this Act, during any further period until the order is made or the Minister notifies the Board that it will not be made.
(6)As soon as may be after giving the Board any such notification as is mentioned in the last foregoing subsection, the Minister shall give notice thereof in the London Gazette or, [F5the Scottish Ministers shall give such notice in], the Edinburgh Gazette.
[F6(8)References in this section to an order made under section 105(3) of this Act include references to such an order made by the Scottish Ministers by virtue of section 105(3A) of this Act.]
