Action taken by the Minister under subsection (1) may be taken on the Minister's behalf by a fisheries officer or another person authorised by the Minister for the purpose.

A person taking action under this section may enter any relevant place or vehicle at any reasonable time.

The reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Minister in taking action under this section may be recovered by the Minister as a debt from the person who failed to comply with the requirements of the reparation order.

If an amount is recoverable from a person by the Minister under this section—

the Minister may, by written notice to the person, fix a period, being not less than 28 days from the date of the notice, within which the amount must be paid by the person and, if the amount is not paid by the person within that period, the person is liable to pay interest charged at the prescribed rate per annum on the amount unpaid; and

the amount together with any interest charge so payable is until paid a charge in favour of the Minister on any land owned by the person in relation to which the reparation order is registered under this
