Public Assistance Act Article 40

In case of a public assistance institution being temporarily stopped, permanently ceasing operation or closing down, abated or abolished, the public assistance institution shall properly shelter the persons under their care at the time. In case appropriate shelters cannot be provided by the institution, the competent authority shall appropriately make alternative arrangements for those sheltered in the institution, and the public assistance institutions shall cooperate with such arrangement. Otherwise, enforced execution may be performed, a sum of NT$60,000-300,000 may be fined, and the competent authority may take over all responsibilities if necessary.
