164Simplified overview of Division

#### 164 Simplified overview of Division A screening officer may request a person to remove items of clothing for screening purposes—but may not require this. However, if a person refuses to comply with such a request and the screening officer is unable to screen the person properly, the screening officer must refuse to allow the person to pass the screening point. A person may choose, or may be requested by a screening officer, to undergo a frisk search. To protect the integrity of screening processes, screening officers are provided with similar restraint and detention powers to those of maritime security guards. A screening officer may only exercise powers under this Division or perform screening functions if the officer: (a) has complied with requirements (including training and qualification requirements) determined by the Secretary; or (b) is exempt from those requirements.
