(2) No person, other than a maximum of two watchmen, shall occupy a new, altered or rebuilt building or use any work in connection therewith unless and until the Director or Technical Manager, as the case may require, after inspection of the building and the work in connection therewith, has certified the building and the work in connection therewith, be in conformity with the provisions of this Act and the building to be fit for occupation; such inspection and the issue of a permit to occupy and use a building or work, or of instructions to amend the building, shall be issued within two weeks of the receipt of the application. 32
