This section applies if an authorised person intends to ask an occupier of a place to consent to the authorised person or another authorised person entering the place.

The consent acknowledgement must state— the occupier was told— the purpose of the entry; and that the occupier is not required to consent; and the purpose of the entry; and the occupier gives the authorised person consent to enter the place and exercise powers under this part; and the time and date the consent was given. If the occupier signs the consent acknowledgement, the authorised person must promptly give a copy to the occupier.
