SEX DISCRIMINATION ORDINANCE - SECT 78

Appeal against enforcement notice

(1) Not later than 45 days after an enforcment notice is served on any person
he may appeal against any requirement of the notice to the District Court.

(2) Where the District Court considers a requirement in respect of which an
appeal is brought under subsection (1) to be unreasonable because it is based
on an incorrect finding of fact or for any other reason, the Court shall quash
the requirement.

(3) On quashing a requirement under subsection (2), the District Court may
direct that the enforcement notice shall be treated as if, in place of the
requirement quashed, it had contained a requirement in terms specified in the
direction.

(4) Subsection (1) shall not apply to a requirement treated as included in an
enforcement notice by virtue of a direction under subsection (3). (Enacted
1995)
