This order does not take effect immediately and the order itself can be suspended if the debtor replies to the order and agrees to be questioned. If the debtor takes the oath and answers the questions asked by the court then a relevant course of action will be taken.
If the debtor fails to attend on the date in the suspended committal order then a warrant of arrest will be issued. The warrant gives the enforcement agent the authority to arrest the debtor and take them before a judge at court.
