#### 113 The things authorised by a search warrant in relation to a person
(1) A search warrant in force in relation to a person authorises the authorised officer executing the warrant or an assisting officer to do any of the following:
(a) to search:
(i) the person as specified in the warrant and things found in the possession of the person; and
(ii) any aircraft, vehicle or vessel that the person had operated or occupied at any time within 24 hours before the search began, for things specified in the warrant;
(b) to:
(i) seize things of that kind; or
(ii) record fingerprints from things; or
(iii) take forensic samples from things;
found in the course of the search;
(c) to seize other things found on, or in, the possession of the person or in the aircraft, vehicle or vessel referred to in subparagraph (a)(ii) in the course of the search that the authorised officer or the assisting officer believes on reasonable grounds to be:
(i) in the case of an investigation warrant—evidential material in relation to the corruption issue or public inquiry to which the warrant relates; or
(ii) in the case of an offence warrant—a thing relevant to the offence to which the warrant relates; or
(iii) in any case—evidential material (within the meaning of the Proceeds of Crime Act 2002) or tainted property (within the meaning of that Act); or
(iv) in any case—a thing relevant to an indictable offence;
if the authorised officer or the assisting officer believes on reasonable grounds that seizure of the thing is necessary to prevent its concealment, loss or destruction or its use in committing an offence;
(d) to seize other things found in the course of the search that the authorised officer or the assisting officer believes on reasonable grounds to be eligible seizable items.
(2) If the search warrant authorises an ordinary search or a frisk search of a person, a search of the person different from that authorised by the warrant must not be done under the warrant.
