—(1) Without prejudice to any other power vested in the Council under this Act, if it appears to the Council that —
(a)
any provision of this Act has not been complied with by or in relation to any registered private education institution; or
(b)
any registered private education institution is not being efficiently or properly administered,
the Council may, by notice in writing addressed to the managers of the registered private education institution, direct them to take such measures and within such time as may be specified in the notice in order that the provision of this Act may be complied with or the registered private education institution may be efficiently or properly administered (as the case may be).
(2) The registered private education institution in respect of which the Council has issued a direction under subsection (1) shall bear all costs and expenses arising from complying with the direction.
(3) Where the managers of the registered private education institution to whom the Council has addressed a direction under subsection (1) fail to comply with the direction, the Council may take such steps as it thinks reasonable and necessary to give effect to the direction and recover all costs and expenses reasonably incurred by it in so doing from the registered private education institution as a civil debt due to the Council.
(4) Where any direction issued by the Council under subsection (1) addressed to the managers of a registered private education institution has not been complied with, every manager of the registered private education institution shall each be guilty of an offence.
(5) It shall be a defence for any person charged with an offence under subsection (4) to prove that he had a reasonable excuse for failing to comply with the direction of the Council that is the subject of the offence.
