... pourra à lui seul y convoquer le contractant
French to English
Tech/Engineering
Engineering: Industrial
Plant - health and safety
En cas de non-respect ou de non-application des mesures de sécurité, le contractant sera tenu d'en rendre compte à l'ingénieur de l'inspection technique (Ministere de l'Emploi et du Travail). L'ingénieur Chef de service SIPP *pourra à lui seul y convoquer le contractant*.
Not sure how to tackle this one - is it 'the chief engineer will be able to summon the contractor/request that the contractor attend'? attend what though - nothing mentioned in the text. Maybe I am approaching convoquer incorrectly. I am also slightly phased by 'à lui seul'.
Any help on this one much appreciated!
Thank you.
