PART IV
INTERFERENCE TO TELECOMMUNICATIONS
Inspection to determine cause of interference
54.  An owner or user of electrical, electronic or radio- communication equipment causing or suspected of causing electrical or radiated interference or disturbance to telecommunication equipment, stations, networks or systems belonging to or authorised or approved by the Authority shall permit an authorised officer to inspect his equipment in order to determine whether the interference is in fact caused by his equipment.
Investigation by Authority upon request
55.—(1)  The Authority may, where requested by any person to —
(a)investigate, for the second or subsequent time, the cause of electrical or radiated interference or disturbance to telecommunication equipment, stations, networks or systems; or
(b)measure and compute the field-strength of radiated electromagnetic energy of any electrical, electronic or radio-communication equipment,
levy a fee of $100 per hour or part thereof for work done.
(2)  Where the Authority undertakes to measure and compute the field-strength of radiated electromagnetic energy under paragraph (1), the Authority shall determine the measuring device to be used, the method by which and the conditions under which tests are to be conducted and the manner in which the field-strength from readings afforded by the measuring device is computed.
Instructions to eliminate or reduce interference
56.—(1)  Where the Authority determines that interference or disturbance to telecommunication equipment, stations, networks or systems is or may be caused by any particular electrical, electronic or radio-communication equipment, the Authority may, by notice in writing, direct the owner or user of that electrical, electronic or radio-communication equipment to do, at his own expense, any one or more of the following:
(a)take suitable measures to eliminate or reduce the interference or disturbance;
(b)remedy a fault in or the improper operation of the equipment;
(c)modify or alter the equipment; or
(d)disconnect the equipment.
(2)  The Authority may require any action required to be taken under paragraph (1) to be effected within such period of time as the Authority may determine having regard to the circumstances of each case.
(3)  If the owner or user fails to comply with the directions issued by the Authority under paragraph (1) or (2), the Authority may, by notice in writing, prohibit the installation or use of that equipment unless and until such directions are complied with.
(4)  In addition to any action the Authority may take under this regulation, the Authority may, where it considers it necessary —
(a)seal or remove the electrical, electronic or radiocommunication equipment or any part thereof referred to in paragraph (1); and
(b)by notice in writing, direct any supplier of electricity to stop the supply of electricity to the owner or user of the electrical, electronic or radio-communication equipment.
