Local Land Services Act 2013

Before an authorised officer enters premises under this Part, the authorising authority must give the occupier of the premises oral or written notice of the intention to enter the occupier’s premises on a day or within a period of days specified in the notice.

The day or any day within the period of days specified must not be the day on which the notice is given.

This section does not require notice to be given—

if entry to the premises is made with the consent of the occupier of the premises, or

if entry has been authorised by a search warrant issued under section 178, or

if entry is required urgently and the authorising authority has authorised in writing (either generally or in the particular case) entry without notice, or

if the authorised officer concerned is a police officer and the giving of notice would defeat the purpose for which it is intended to exercise the power of entry, or

if entry is required to eradicate any pest kept in captivity without lawful authority.
