Passenger Transport Act 2014

A person may be required to state his or her full name and residential address by an authorised officer if the authorised officer—

reasonably suspects the person to be committing or to have committed an offence against this Act or the regulations, or

reasonably suspects the person to be committing or to have committed an offence against the Graffiti Control Act 2008 on railway premises, or

finds the person in circumstances that lead, or has information that leads, the officer reasonably to suspect the person has committed such an offence.

A person who—

without reasonable excuse, fails or refuses to comply with the requirements of an authorised officer made under subsection (1), or

in purported compliance with such a requirement, states a name that is not his or her name or an address that is not his or her residential address,

A person is not guilty of an offence under this section unless it is established that the authorised officer—

warned the person that a failure or refusal to comply with the requirement is an offence, and

identified himself or herself as an authorised officer or, in the case of an authorised officer who is a police officer, as a police officer.

The authorised officer may also request the person to provide evidence of the correctness of the stated name or required address.
