(ii) if the entry is made under a warrant—at any time specified in the warrant; and
(b) exercise the powers set out in section 60.
(2) An authorised officer is not authorised to enter premises under subsection (1) unless:
(a) if the premises are business premises—the occupier of the premises has consented to the entry and the officer has shown his or her identity card if required by the occupier; or
(b) the entry is made under a warrant.
(3) If an authorised officer is on the premises with the consent of the occupier, the authorised officer must leave the premises if the occupier asks the authorised officer to do so.
