90 Functions of Commonwealth officers and authorities relating to offences
(1) If a Commonwealth law, which applies because of section 89, confers a function in relation to an offence against the Commonwealth therapeutic goods laws on a Commonwealth officer or authority, the law also confers the same function on the officer or authority in relation to an offence against the corresponding provision of the applied provisions.
(2) In exercising a function conferred by this section, the Commonwealth officer or authority must act as nearly as practicable as the officer or authority would act in exercising the same function in relation to an offence against the corresponding provision of the Commonwealth therapeutic goods laws.
