232 Non-compliance labels and notices
An authorised officer carrying out an inspection under Division 2 of Part 4C of the Act of a vehicle used for the purposes of a public passenger service may affix a label (a non-compliance label) to the vehicle if it appears to the authorised officer that the vehicle does not meet the requirements set out in clause 17.

An authorised officer may remove a non-compliance label from a vehicle if satisfied on inspection of the vehicle that the necessary action specified in the label or non-compliance notice has been taken.
A person must not remove a non-compliance label from a vehicle unless the person is an authorised officer (or is authorised in writing to do so by an authorised officer).
