is no longer a fit and proper person to continue to hold an instructor’s licence by reason of his conduct or physical disability; or

is contravening or has contravened any of the provisions of this Part or any rules made thereunder; or
(b)
if he considers it in the public interest to do so.
(2)  The Deputy Commissioner of Police shall, before revoking or suspending an instructor’s licence under subsection (1), give the driving instructor concerned notice in writing of his intention to do so specifying a date, not less than 14 days after the date of the notice, upon which such revocation or suspension shall be made and calling upon the driving instructor to show cause to the Deputy Commissioner of Police why his licence should not be revoked or suspended.
