An owner of land desiring to compel the owner of adjoining land to join in or contribute to the construction of a dividing fence under this Act may give him a notice which shall —

(c) specify the kind of fence proposed to be constructed.
9. Proceedings in default of agreement
(1) If within 21 days after the giving of a notice referred to in section 8, the owner giving and the owner receiving the notice do not agree as to all or any of the following matters —
(a) as to the need for the construction of the dividing fence; or
(b) the boundary or line upon which it is proposed to construct the fence; or

(3) When making an order under this section, the court shall be guided as to the type of sufficient fence the court orders to be constructed by the kind of fence usually constructed in the locality where it is proposed to construct the fence, the purpose for which the lands that will be separated by the fence are used and the type of sufficient fence (if any) prescribed under a local law made by the local government for that locality.

(2) The owner who constructs the fence pursuant to subsection (1) may recover from the owner in default half the cost thereof.
[Section 10 amended: No. 59 of 2004 s. 141.]
11. Cases where owner of adjoining land cannot be found
(1) Where the owner of land satisfies the court at the place nearest to the place where he proposes to construct a dividing fence, that he has made reasonable inquiries and has been unable to ascertain the whereabouts of the owner of the adjoining land for the purpose of giving a notice as required by section 8, the court may, upon application in the prescribed form by the first‑mentioned owner for an order authorising the construction of a dividing fence as set out in the application, proceed ex parte to make an order authorising the applicant to construct a fence of the kind specified in the order upon the boundary or line specified therein.
(2) Where a person constructs a dividing fence in compliance with an order made under subsection (1), if afterwards during the continuance of that fence, the person ascertains the whereabouts of the owner of the adjoining land, whether or not such owner was the owner of the land at the time of the construction of the fence, the person may give to such owner a copy of the order.
(3) The owner to whom the copy of the order is given shall, after the expiration of one month from the date the notice is given to him, be liable to pay to the person who constructed the fence half the value of the fence at the date of the giving of the copy of the order.
(4) If the owner to whom the copy of the order is given considers the order inequitable, the court may, on an application by that owner made within one month after the giving to him of the copy of the order —
(a) relieve the applicant from a portion of the sum claimed as the value of the fence; and
(b) order that the position of the fence be altered on such terms as the court may think fit.
(5) The value of the fence shall be ascertained as soon as practicable after the giving of the copy of the order, pursuant to subsection (3), and, in default of agreement between the owners, the value may, on an application by either of them, be determined by the court.
(6) Where an owner has obtained an ex parte order under subsection (1) he shall, within 21 days, give or cause to be given to the chief executive officer of the local government of the district in which the fence referred to in that order is to be constructed, a copy of that order, and if the owner fails to comply with this subsection he is not entitled to recover any portion of the cost of constructing the fence from the owner to whom the copy of the order is given under this section.
[Section 11 amended: No. 14 of 1996 s. 4; No. 59 of 2004 s. 141.]
12. Proceedings for defining boundary line by surveyor
(1) When the owners of adjoining lands do not agree as to the accurate position of the common boundary line between those lands upon which either of the owners desires a dividing fence to be constructed pursuant to this Act, either one may give notice to the other of his intention to have that line defined by a surveyor.
(2) The owner to whom a notice under subsection (1) is given shall, within 7 days after the giving of the notice —
(a) if satisfied of the accurate position of the common boundary line, define the line by pegs; or
(b) employ a surveyor to define the common boundary line,
and where that owner has taken action under either paragraph (a) or paragraph (b), he shall as soon as practicable thereafter give the owner of the adjoining land notice of the action he has taken.
(3) If within one month from the giving of a notice pursuant to subsection (1), the owner to whom the notice was given —
(a) has defined the common boundary line by pegs; or
(b) has failed to have the common boundary line defined by a surveyor,
then the owner who gave the notice may have that line defined by a surveyor.
(4) If the common boundary line when defined by a surveyor is found to be in the same position as defined by any pegs placed there by the owner receiving the notice given pursuant to subsection (1), that owner is entitled to recover any costs of the survey, if any, incurred by him from the owner giving the notice, but in all other cases where a surveyor has been employed for the purposes of this section all reasonable expenses incurred shall be paid in equal shares by the owners of the adjoining lands.
13. Liability to contribute to cost of dividing fence
(1) When an owner of land has constructed a dividing fence that separates his land from adjoining land if the fence is a sufficient fence, the owner of the adjoining land is liable to pay in accordance with the provisions of this section half of the amount of the value of the fence.
(2) When an owner of land has, whether before or after the coming into operation of this Act, without giving a notice pursuant to section 8 or pursuant to any corresponding provision of any Act repealed by this Act, constructed such a dividing fence and has not received from the owner of the adjoining land or any previous owner of it one‑half of the amount of the value of the fence, then if the adjoining owner —
(a) has completed or completes, or has caused or causes to be completed the construction of any substantial building or structure on his adjoining land; or
(b) has occupied or occupies a building or structure constructed on the adjoining land; or
(c) has permitted or permits the lawful occupation by a person of a building or structure erected on the adjoining land,
the owner who constructed the fence may give to the owner of the adjoining land a notice claiming the payment of half of the amount of the value of the fence as estimated at the date of the claim.

(4) The owner who constructed the fence may, in default of agreement between the owners upon all or any of the matters referred to in subsection (3), apply to the court at the place nearest to the place where the fence was constructed claiming that the owner of the adjoining land has failed to pay half of the amount of the value of the fence in accordance with subsection (1).
(5) The court on an application made pursuant to subsection (4) may, by order, determine —
(a) the need for the dividing fence; and
(b) whether the fence is desirable; and
(c) the value of the fence as at the date of the claim made under subsection (2); and
(d) the amount, if any, to be paid, and the period within which that amount is to be paid, by the owner of the adjoining land to the owner who constructed the fence.
(6) An order of the court made pursuant to subsection (5) is final.
(7) If the owner of adjoining land on whom a notice of claim has been made pursuant to subsection (2) does not —
(a) pay the amount of the claim within one month of the receipt by him thereof; or
