When it appears to be necessary in the opinion of the Tax Commissioner or other proper authority or person, he or she shall designate and appoint some competent person to examine the treasurer's books and statement of settlement, and the person so designated and appointed shall have access to the treasurer's books and papers appertaining to such treasurer's office or settlement for the purpose of making such examination.
