(1) The Authority shall immediately report to the Port Disputes Board any case involving the disruption of a roster in which port workers may at the time be organized.

(2) The Port Disputes Board shall investigate such report and if it finds to its satisfaction that a roster was wilfully or negligently disrupted by an employer of port workers, or by a person acting on behalf of such employer, it shall award compensation, not exceeding one thousand and one hundred and sixty-four euros and sixty-nine cents (1,164.69), against such employer in favour of the port workers prejudiced by such disruption.

(3) When two or more employers of port workers are found by the Port Disputes Board to have wilfully or negligently concurrently disrupted a roster, the Port Disputes Board may determine the proportion of the amount of compensation to be paid by each of such employers, but in determining such proportions, the said Board shall take into account the extent to which each of such employers has been in default.
