(Past version on 30/06/1997).

Whenever it appears to the Director of Fire Services that any neon, electric
or other similar light sign is for any reason, including inefficient
maintenance, a source of serious risk of fire, it shall be lawful for him, by
notice in writing specifying the reason, to require the removal of the sign.
Within 7 days of the service of any such notice, the person by or for whom the
sign was erected and is maintained shall cause the sign to be removed unless
within such period of 7 days he satisfies the Director of Fire Services, by
remedying any defect or otherwise, that the notice can safely be withdrawn.
