(in this section referred to as "the protected premises"), the
Commissioners of Works and their engineer, or other officer duly
authorised in writing under the hand of their secretary, may from
time to time enter upon and inspect any generating station of any
undertakers, and, if on such inspection it should appear to the
Commissioners that proper precautions are not being adopted for the
due consumption of smoke, and for preventing as far as reasonably
practicable the evolution of oxides of sulphur, and generally for
the prevention of nuisance in relation to the protected premises,
they may, without prejudice to any other remedy, require the
undertakers forthwith to carry out such works and to do such things
as are necessary in the circumstances.

(2) The undertakers shall give all reasonable facilities for such
inspection to the Commissioners and their engineer or other officer
as aforesaid.
