Terrorism (Police Powers) Act 2002

While a preventative detention order is in force in relation to a person—

any police officer may take the person into custody, and

any police officer may detain the person.

A police officer has, for the purpose of taking a person into custody under a preventative detention order or preventing the person escaping from that custody, the same functions as the police officer would have if the police officer were taking the person into custody in connection with the commission of an offence or preventing the person escaping from that custody.

Subsection (2) does not apply to the extent to which particular functions are provided for in this Part.
