Western Australian Consolidated Acts Western Australian Consolidated Acts (1) The Minister may,
in calling tenders under section 16, call them subject to any one or more
of the conditions, restrictions and prohibitions attaching to the tender and
any other conditions, restrictions or prohibitions, whether precedent or
subsequent, or both, as the Minister may in his discretion impose with respect
to the acceptance of a tender including conditions that the tenderer will if
his tender is accepted —
(a)
provide a minimum service, as specified by the Minister;
(b)
provide the minimum service for a minimum period, as specified by the
Minister;
(c)
execute jointly and severally, with sureties of a number and kind to be
approved by the Minister a bond in favour of the Minister, binding the
tenderer and his sureties to the Minister in an amount to be specified by the
Minister for the due compliance with every condition, restriction and
prohibition imposed by the Minister.
(2) The imposition, by
the Minister, of conditions, restrictions and prohibitions on a licence
pursuant to this section does not preclude his imposition of conditions,
restrictions and prohibitions on the licence pursuant to section 16.
(3) Where a tenderer
who has been granted a licence subject to conditions, restrictions or
prohibitions or any of them, including the execution of a bond, imposed under
the authority of this section, and thereafter fails, in any respect, duly to
perform any one of the conditions, restrictions or prohibitions, then, without
prejudice to the right or power of the Minister under this Act to cancel the
licence granted to the tenderer, the Minister may take any proceedings at law
or in equity in any court of competent jurisdiction to enforce payment under
the bond against all or any of the persons thereby bound.
