offer and pay a reward to any person who gives information to the Board or any
of its officers of the commission of an offence against this Act which leads
to the conviction of a person for the offence.
(2) When proceedings
are taken before a Court in respect of the offence if the person in respect of
whom the information was given is convicted of the offence, the Court may in
addition to imposing any penalty or ordering an amount to be paid under
section 23(2), order that person to pay to the Board on account of any
reward which the Board has paid or is liable to pay under this section, the
amount of the reward or a sum of $40 whichever is the lesser amount.
