Resumen

This Act grants powers to Parish Councils to abate nuisances such as dangerous buildings and structures on private land and holds the owner of such land to be liable for the payment of the costs of such operation. The Council may, in case the nuisance is not abated, apply to court for a conditional sale of the land upon which the nuisance exists. The Act sets out the procedure for sale of such land. The Act also provides for an absolute order for sale and the certification of a nuisance.
