Recreation Areas Management Act 2006

An authorised officer may enter a place if—

its occupier consents to the entry; or

it is a public place and the entry is made when it is open to the public; or

the entry is authorised by a warrant; or

it is the place of business of a commercial activity permit holder or a party to a commercial activity agreement and is—

open for carrying on the business; or

otherwise open for entry; or

required to be open for inspection under the permit or agreement.

For the purpose of asking the occupier of a place for consent to enter, an authorised officer may, without the occupier’s consent or a warrant—

enter land around premises at the place to an extent that is reasonable to contact the occupier; or

enter part of the place the officer reasonably considers members of the public ordinarily are allowed to enter when they wish to contact the occupier.

For subsection (1)(d), a place of business does not include a part of the place where an individual resides.
