Design and Building Practitioners Act 2020

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 decide 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.

In that case, the person’s certificate of identification as an investigator is taken to be the person’s identification card as an authorised officer.

An authorised officer must, if requested to do so when exercising a function under this Act by a person affected by the exercise of the 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.
