Western Australian Consolidated Acts (1) Where, during a
financial year, a drainage district is constituted, the Corporation may, with
the consent of the Minister, and subject to such exceptions and conditions (if
any) as he may see fit to impose, exercise the powers and carry out the duties
and obligations granted to and imposed upon the Corporation by this Part as
soon after the constitution of the drainage district as, in the opinion of the
Minister, shall be practicable.
(2) For the purposes
of this section the Corporation, in relation to that newly constituted
drainage district, may make and levy drainage rates for the then current
financial year from the date of the constitution of the district, and the
maximum and minimum rate of any rate to be imposed under this section shall
bear the same ratio to the maximum and minimum fixed by section 88 7 as
the portion of the current financial year unexpired at the date of the
constitution of the district bears to a full year.
