Powers available to inspectors for monitoring compliance
69EAB Powers available to inspectors for monitoring compliance
Subject to subsections (2) and (3), for the purpose of finding out whether this Act or the Collection Act has been, or is being, complied with, or of assessing the correctness of information provided under this Act or the Collection Act, or of finding out whether levy is payable under the Collection Act, an inspector may:
enter any premises; and
exercise the monitoring powers.
If premises mentioned in paragraph (1)(a) are a residence, an inspector may only enter the premises if:
the premises are used for commercial purposes in relation to active constituents or chemical products, in addition to residential purposes; and
paragraph (3)(a) or (b) is satisfied.
An inspector is not authorised to enter premises under subsection (1) unless:
the occupier of the premises has consented to the entry and the inspector has shown his or her identity card if required by the occupier; or
the entry is made under a monitoring warrant.
If entry to the premises is with the occupier’s consent, the inspector must leave the premises if the consent ceases to have effect. See section 69ED.
