Section 16:
Power of Bank to require bonds.
(1) Before making any order which it is empowered
to make under this Act, the Bank may require the person in whose favour the order is to be made
to execute a bond with one or more sureties in such form as may be prescribed or to furnish
security not exceeding twice the value of the subject-matter of the order, to be held at the
disposal of the Bank, to pay to the Bank or any person to whom the Bank may assign the bond or
security in furtherance of sub-section (2) the amount thereof.
(2) A Court before which a claim in respect of the subject-matter of any such order is
established may order the bond or security to be assigned to the successful claimant who shall
thereupon be entitled to enforce the bond or realise the security to the extent of such claim.
