119.—(1) Nothing in—
(a)any hazardous substances consent granted or deemed to be granted; or
(b)any hazardous substances contravention notice issued under section 162 (hazardous substances contravention notices),
shall require or allow anything to be done in contravention of any of the relevant statutory provisions or any prohibition notice or improvement notice served under or by virtue of any of those provisions; and to the extent that such a consent or notice purports to require or allow any such thing to be done, it shall be void.
(2) Where it appears to a council after a hazardous substances consent has been granted, or is deemed to have been granted, or after a hazardous substances contravention notice has been issued that the consent or notice or part of it is rendered void by subsection (1), the council must, as soon as is reasonably practicable, consult the Health and Safety Executive for Northern Ireland with regard to the matter.
(3) If the Executive advises the council that the consent or notice is rendered wholly void, the council must revoke it.
(4) If the Executive advises that part of the consent or notice is rendered void, the council must so modify it as to render it wholly operative.
(5) In this section, “relevant statutory provisions”, “improvement notice” and “prohibition notice” have the same meanings as in the Health and Safety at Work (Northern Ireland) Order 1978 (NI 9).
