s 109E Temporary orders
(1) This section applies where an application has been made to a magistrates’ court under section 109D(1)(a) for a restriction order. (2) The court may adjourn the hearing of the application for a period of not more than 14 days to enable— (a) the appropriate agency to show why a restriction order should be made; (b) the occupier or the owner of the premises to show why a restriction order should not be made. (3) If the court adjourns the hearing, the restriction notice continues in force until the court has determined the application. (4) If the court does not make a restriction order it may nevertheless order that the restriction notice continues in force for a specified further period of not more than 72 hours if it is satisfied that— (a) there is a risk of serious pollution to the environment or serious harm to human health which is a result of the treatment, keeping, deposit or disposal of waste in or on the premises, and (b) the notice is necessary to prevent that risk from continuing.
