Clinical Waste Act 1990

An inspector who requests a person to consent to the inspector entering premises under section 32 (1) must inform the person that he or she may refuse to give consent.

If an inspector obtains the consent of a person to enter premises under section 32 (1), the inspector must ask the person to sign a written acknowledgment—

that the person has been informed that he or she may refuse to so consent; and

that the person has consented; and

of the day and time the person consented.

If it is material, in any proceedings, for a court to be satisfied that a person has consented to an inspector entering premises under section 32 (1) and an acknowledgment, in accordance with subsection (2), signed by the person is not produced in evidence, it must be presumed that the person did not consent, unless the contrary is established.
