§ 15.
Disciplinary actions. (a) In case the registrant, after receiving notice, fails to file an answer, his registration may, in the discretion of the Director, having first received the recommendation of the Board, be suspended, revoked, placed on probationary status, or the Director may take whatever disciplinary action he may deem proper, including the imposition of a fine, without a hearing, if the act or acts charged constitute sufficient grounds for such action under this Act. (b) The Director may temporarily suspend the registration of a registrant without a hearing, simultaneous to the institution of proceedings for a hearing under this Act, if the Director finds that evidence in his possession indicates that the person's continuation of use of the title would constitute an immediate danger to the public. In the event that the Director temporarily suspends the registration of a registrant without a hearing, a hearing by the Board must be held within 15 days after such suspension has occurred and concluded without appreciable delay.
