1110. Every fine imposed as a sentence for offences under any by-law or under this Code, belongs, unless otherwise provided, one-half to the prosecutor and the other half to the corporation.
If the suit is instituted by the corporation, the fine belongs altogether to it.
If the fine is due by the corporation, it belongs one-half to the prosecutor and the other half to the Crown, and the Crown’s half shall, in such case, be paid to the Deputy Minister of Revenue.
When a portion of the fine is payable to the Crown, it is the duty of the clerk of the court to give notice of the judgment imposing the fine to the Deputy Minister of Revenue, under penalty of a fine of $20, which fine shall belong one-half to the Crown and one-half to the prosecutor.
