Exercise of powers in premises
371 Exercise of powers in premises
A biosecurity officer or a biosecurity enforcement officer may enter premises in a biosecurity response zone for the purpose of exercising powers in accordance with section 370.
Premises include a conveyance (see paragraph (a) of the definition of premises in section 9).
However, an officer is not authorised to enter premises under subsection (1) unless:
the occupier of the premises has consented to the entry and the officer has shown his or her identity card if required by the occupier; or
the entry is made under a biosecurity response zone warrant.
For the issue of warrants, and the obligations and powers of biosecurity enforcement officers and biosecurity officers in entering premises under a warrant or with consent, see Part 3, and Division 3 of Part 4, of Chapter 9.
