Power of Government to suspend or prohibit levy of objectionable taxes

Power of Government to suspend or prohibit levy of objectionable taxes. (1) If it shall at any time appear to the Government on complaint made or otherwise, that any tax or fee leviable by a municipal council, is unfair in its incidence, or that the levy thereof, or of any part thereof, is obnoxious to the interests of the general public, the Government may require the said municipal council, within such period as it shall fix in this behalf, to take measures for removing any objection which appears to it to exist to the said tax or fee, and if within the period so fixed, such requirements shall not be carried into effect to the satisfaction of the Government, it may, by notification suspend the levy of such tax or fee, or of such part thereof, until such time as the objection thereto shall be removed. (2) The Government may at any time, by a notification, rescind any such suspension.
