(3) If while any order by a competent authority under this regulation is in force, an application is made to the authority by persons appearing to the authority to be interested requesting that an inquiry into the extent of the nuisance, or the steps that might be taken to minimize it, should be held, the competent authority shall, unless the application appears to such authority to be frivolous, direct the holding of such an inquiry, and shall after receiving the report of the person appointed to hold the inquiry, consider whether or not the order should be varied or revoked.

(4) For the purposes of this regulation, proceedings for the enforcement of an express covenant not to commit nuisance or for the recovery of damages in respect of a breach of such a covenant shall be deemed to be proceedings for the abatement or prohibition of a nuisance or for the recovery of damages in respect of a nuisance, as the case may be.

(5) Nothing in this regulation shall affect any proceedings for the enforcement of an Ordinance.
