313 Evidence of authority

(1)

A person (the inspector), other than ASIC, who is about to make, or has made, a requirement of another person under this Chapter (other than Part 6‑5) must, if the other person requests evidence of the inspector’s authority to make the requirement, produce to the other person:

(a)

a current identity card that was issued to the inspector by ASIC and incorporates a photograph of the inspector; and

(b)

if the requirement will be, or was, made under an authorisation by ASIC—a document that was issued by ASIC and sets out the effect of so much of the authorisation as is relevant to making the requirement; and

(c)

otherwise—such evidence (if any) of the inspector’s authority to make the requirement as ASIC determines.

(2)

An identity card under paragraph (1)(a) is not a legislative instrument.
