s 18Powers of Local Censor

A Local Censor shall, with respect to any public entertainment, have the same power as the Censor has under paragraphs (a), (c) and (d) of subsection (1) of section 5 with respect to a film:

Provided that there shall be a right of appeal from any decision of a Local

Censor and that, for the purposes of any such appeal, subsections (3) and (4)

of section 14 shall apply to censorship by a Local Censor in like manner as they apply to censorship by a Censor, but with the substitution therein of the expression “Local Censor” for the expression “Censor”.
