Public Guardian Act 2014

A community visitor (child) may enter a visitable home at which a child under care is staying if—

a carer staying at the home consents to the entry; or

the entry is authorised by a warrant.

For the purpose of asking a person who is a carer staying at a visitable home for consent to enter, a visitor may, without the person’s consent or a warrant—

enter land around the home to an extent that is reasonable to contact the person; or

enter part of the home the visitor reasonably considers members of the public ordinarily are allowed to enter when they wish to contact the person.
