The Port Authority may recover costs of survey

When a ship has been surveyed under this Part in consequence of a complaint made to the Harbour Master, if upon such survey being made, it appears that such complaint was made without reasonable cause, the expenses incurred by the Harbour Master in respect of the survey of the ship and the amount, if any, which he has been rendered liable to pay in respect of any loss or damage caused by her detention, shall be recoverable by the Port Authority from such complainant.
