Clause 35

All expenses incurred by the Building Authority in or about the execution of any work pursuant to any provision of this Act shall be recoverable as a debt due to the Government from the person liable therefor and if there is more than one person, the expenses shall be apportioned by the Building Authority among the persons in such manner as he thinks fit.

The Building Authority may certify under his hand the expenses due and the names of the persons liable therefor and may by such certificate apportion the expenses among those persons and a copy of the certificate shall be served upon each of those persons.

Interest at the rate of 6% per annum from the expiry of one month from the date of service of a certificate under subsection (2) shall be recoverable as part of the expenses incurred by the Building Authority.

A certificate purporting to be under the hand of the Building Authority and to be made under subsection (2) and setting forth the amount claimed as due to the Building Authority and the persons as liable for the payment thereof shall be prima facie evidence of the facts certified therein and of the signature of the Building Authority thereto.
