(A) (1) Whenever it shall be shown or whenever the Commission has reason to believe that any person registered under this subchapter has violated any of the provisions thereof, or that any promoter, agent or solicitor of a permit holder has misrepresented the purpose of the solicitation, the Commission shall immediately suspend the permit and give the permit holder written notice in person or by certified mail, return receipt requested, of the suspension and of a hearing to be held within seven days of such suspension to determine whether or not the permit should be revoked.
(2) This notice must contain a statement of the facts upon which the Commission has acted in suspending the permit.
(3) At the hearing, the permit holder, and any other interested persons, shall have the right to present evidence as to the facts upon which the Commission based the suspension of the permit and any other facts which may aid the Commission in determining whether this subchapter has been violated and whether the purpose of the solicitation has been misrepresented.
(4) If, after such hearing, the Commission finds that the subchapter has been violated or the purpose of the solicitation has been misrepresented, it shall within two days after the hearing file in its office for public inspection and send to the permit holder by registered mail, or serve him or her in any manner provided by general law for the service of notices, a written statement of the facts upon which it bases such a finding and shall immediately revoke the permit.
(5) If, after the hearing, the Commission finds that this subchapter has not been violated and the purpose of the solicitation has not been misrepresented, it shall, within two days after the hearing give to the permit holder a written statement canceling the suspension of the permit and stating that no violation or misrepresentation was found to have been committed.
(B) (1) In all cases where a suspension of the permit occurs, the Chief of Police shall be notified forthwith by the Commission of the suspension or revocation of any permit issued under this subchapter.
(2) In like manner, the Commission shall immediately notify the Chief of Police, subsequent to the hearing provided for hereinabove of the decision of the Commission.
