Queensland Consolidated Acts Queensland Consolidated Acts(1) This section applies if an inspector named in a warrant issued under this division for a place is intending to enter the place under the warrant.
(2) Before entering the place, the inspector must do or make a reasonable attempt to do the following things--
(a) identify himself or herself to a person present at the place who is an occupier of the place by producing a copy of the inspector's identity card or other document evidencing the inspector's appointment;
(b) give the person a copy of the warrant or if the entry is authorised by a facsimile warrant or warrant form mentioned in section 48(6), a copy of the facsimile warrant or warrant form;
(c) tell the person the inspector is permitted by the warrant to enter the place;
(d) give the person an opportunity to allow the inspector immediate entry to the place without using force.
(3) However, the inspector need not comply with subsection (2) if the inspector believes on reasonable grounds that immediate entry to the place is required to ensure the effective execution of the warrant is not frustrated.
