44 Making of interim injunctive orders

• (1) The Authority may make an interim injunctive order if, in its opinion, the application relates to an activity or a facility that—

  • (a) contravenes, or is likely to contravene, the approval, declaration, or test approval or declaration granted for the activity or facility; or

  • (b) is, or is likely to be, noxious, dangerous, offensive, or objectionable to such an extent that it has, or is likely to have,—

    • (i) an adverse effect on the environment that is not of a temporary nature; or

    • (ii) a serious prejudicial effect on the proper conduct of the Rugby World Cup 2011.

  (2) If the Authority considers it necessary or desirable to avoid, mitigate, or remedy an effect of a kind described in subsection (1)(b), an interim injunctive order may be made—

  • (a) without requiring service of the application on the person against whom the order is sought; and

  • (b) without holding a hearing.

  (3) Before making an order, the Authority must consider—

  • (a) the effect on the environment or on the conduct of the Rugby World Cup 2011 of not making the order; and

  • (b) whether any adverse effect is of a temporary nature only; and

  • (c) whether the Authority should hear the statutory person or body that applied for the order or the person against whom the order is sought; and

  • (d) any other matters that the Authority thinks fit.
