Where it appears to the court on the hearing of a charge for an offence against this Act that the person committing the offence has acted only under the orders or by the sanction of his master or employer and that the master or employer is in fact the offending party, either solely or as well as the person so offending, the court may by summons or warrant order the master or employer to appear to answer the charge as if it had originally been filed against the master or employer and may either discharge the person first charged or may hear and determine the charge against both as the court thinks fit.
