Licensed Land Surveyors

( 4) A licensed land surveyor and his assistants may, for the purpose of carrying out a title survey, at any reason-able time during the hours of daylight enter upon all lands which he is employed to survey, and upon any neighbouring lands and may emplace any boundary mark in or upon such lands and may dig up any ground mark for the purpose of emplacing such boundary mark and may cut down and re-move any timber or other growth which may obstruct any survey line or any boundary causing as little damage as possible thereby:

Provided that nothing in this section shall exempt such licensed surveyor or his assistant from liability for any dam-age which he may cause in the exercise of the powers confer-red by this subsection.

For the purpose of obtaining data for a title sur-vey, a licensed land surveyor may at all reasonable times be permitted to inspect relevant Survey Department maps and plans and to take copies of such information therefrom as he may require without payment of search fees:

Provided that he shall, by virtue of this Act, be liable to keep Government fully and effectually indemnified in re-spect of any loss of, damage or expense whatsoever incurred by or on behalf of Government by reason of any loss of or damage to any such maps or plans occurring at any time when they are under his control.
