85 Power to enter premises with consent

(1) A police officer may enter any premises and exercise the monitoring powers set out in section 87 for any of the following purposes: (a) finding out whether this Ordinance and the rules are being, or have been, complied with; (b) investigating a marine accident; (c) conducting a marine safety investigation. (2) However, a police officer is not authorised to enter premises under this section unless the occupier of the premises has consented to the entry, and the police officer has shown appropriate identification if required by the occupier.

Note: If entry to the premises is with the occupier’s consent, the police officer must leave the premises if the consent ceases to have effect (see section 93).
