Section 107: Power of court to consolidate claims.

Where any liability is alleged to have been incurred by the Authority in respect of any loss or damage to which section 105 of this Act applies, and several claims are made or apprehended in respect of that liability, then the Authority may apply to the High Court concerned, and that court may determine the amount of the liability of the Authority, and may distribute that amount rateably among the several claimants, and may stay any proceedings pending in any other court in relation to the same matter, and may proceed in such manner and subject to such directions as to making persons interested parties to the proceedings, and as to the exclusion of any claimants who do not come in within a certain time and as to requiring security from the Authority and as to the payment of any costs, as the court thinks fit.
