245 Fisheries officers to have instruments of authority
(1) The Minister is to issue an instrument of authority to each fisheries officer (other than a police officer).
(2) The instrument of authority must—
(a) state the name of the person to whom it is issued and the fact that the person is a fisheries officer under this Act, and
(b) contain a statement of any limitation on the person’s functions.
(3) In the case of a fisheries officer whose functions are not limited, the instrument of authority may take the form of a badge with an identifying number instead of the name of the officer.
