At any application for the grant of a licence, the Commissioner, the Chief Fire Officer, the Chief Medical Officer or any member of the public who has given at least seven days’ notice of objection in writing to the Chairperson may appear and be heard in objection to the grant of such licence.
At any meeting of a Board, the Commissioner, the Chief Fire Officer, the Chief Medical Officer or any member of the public who has given to the Chairperson seven days notice of objection may appear and ask for the revocation or discontinuance of any existing licence:
Provided that where, in the case of such objection by a member of the public, the Board is of the opinion that the objection is malicious, frivolous or vexatious, the Board may order the objector to pay the licensee any costs he has incurred thereby and to pay to the Board for the benefit of the revenue of the Islands a further sum at the rate of one hundred dollars for each hour or part of an hour of the Board’s time taken up by hearing and investigating the objector’s complaint.
