indecent, obscene, abusive or improper way.

that it is in the interest of the person that the direction be given. Note :

a period is not specified, from the time it is given until it is revoked by a

(5) Permission given under subclause (4) may be given
subject to any condition that the Commissioner considers appropriate.
