Collection of fees

(1) Occupancy fees shall be payable on the 1st April of each year and shall be recoverable in accordance with the provisions of any law in force governing the collection of Crown rents. (2) On dates of which the alcaldes will be notified, an officer will attend at the villages for the purpose of collecting the fees, for which receipts on official forms will be given. Occupancy fees may, however, be paid to the Commissioner of Lands and Surveys at any time of the year before the visit of the collector. Alcaldes shall be responsible that all persons who occupy land in the Reserve, and who have not paid their fees, are present on the appointed days to make payment. (3) Any occupier who fails to pay his fee on or before the appointed day may be dealt with in accordance with rule 5 of these Rules.
