(1) If any local authority makes default in the performance of any duty imposed by or under this Act, the State Government may appoint some person to perform it and may direct that the expenses of performing it with a reasonable remuneration to the person appointed to perform it shall be paid forthwith by the local authority.
(2) If the expense and remuneration are not so paid, the State Government may, notwithstanding anything contained in any law relating to the municipal fund or local fund or any other law for the time being in force, make an order directing the bank in which any moneys of the local authority are deposited or the person in charge, of the local Government Treasury or of any other place of security in which the moneys of the local authority are deposited to pay such expense and remuneration from such moneys as may be standing to the credit of the local authority in such bank or may be in the hands of such person or as may from time to time be received from or on behalf of the local authority by way of deposit by such bank or person, and such bank or person shall be bound to obey such order. Every payment made pursuant to such order shall be a sufficient discharge to such Bank or person from all liability to the local authority in respect of any sum or sums so paid by it or him out of the moneys of the local authority so deposited with such bank or person.
12. Notwithstanding anything contained in any enactment in regard to any municipal or local fund, all expenses incurred by a municipality or any other local authority under and for the purposes of this Act shall be paid out of the municipal or local fund, as the case may be.
