Identification
89 Identification
Every authorised officer who is not a police officer is to be provided with an identification card as an authorised officer by the Secretary.
The Secretary may determine not to issue an identification card to an investigator within the meaning of the Fair Trading Act 1987 who is appointed as an authorised officer and the person’s certificate of identification as an investigator is taken to be the person’s identification card as an authorised officer.
In the course of exercising the functions of an authorised officer under this Act, the officer must, if requested to do so by any person affected by the exercise of any function, produce to the person the officer’s identification card as an authorised officer or, in the case of a police officer, the officer’s police identification.
