lessee, tenant or occupier of the building to appear before him or the Board as the case may be either in
person or by an authorised agent, and, if the Officer Commanding the Station or the Board, is then
satisfied as to the truth of the information, may, by order in writing, direct the owner, lessee, tenant or
