The Chief Surveyor may, at any time, undertake such field and office checks on the survey work of a licensed surveyor as he thinks fit.
The Chief Surveyor may, under section 25, by notice in writing, instruct any licensed surveyor to correct at his own expense within a time specified in such notice any error made by him in the survey represented by the plan submitted for authentication.
In the event of such licensed surveyor refusing or neglecting within the time specified to correct such error, it shall be lawful for the Chief Surveyor to undertake such correction for the licensed surveyor concerned.
If such licensed surveyor refuses or neglects to pay the cost of the correction referred to in subsection (3) within fourteen days of it being demanded of him, the Chief Surveyor may report the facts to the Board for disciplinary action, and after due inquiry the Board may order such licensed surveyor to pay the cost of correction to the Chief Surveyor; and if such licensed surveyor refuses or neglects to comply with such order within one month after the date of the order, the Board may, subject to section 21, suspend the licence of the licensed surveyor until the cost of the correction has been paid, or for a period not exceeding three years, whichever it thinks fit.
