42. Recovery of financial penalties

Any person who fails to pay a financial penalty by the date the person is required to do so under this Act is liable to pay, after that date, interest on the amount unpaid at the same rate as for a judgment debt.

Any financial penalty and any interest on any financial penalty payable by any person under this Act is recoverable by the Board from that person as a debt due to the Board.

The Board may, in any case it thinks fit, waive, remit or refund, wholly or in part, any financial penalty or any interest thereon payable under this Act.

The Board must pay into the Consolidated Fund all financial penalties and interest thereon collected by the Board under this Act.
