140XB Power of inspectors to enter premises or places
          (1) An inspector may, without force, enter business premises or
              another place, if the inspector reasonably believes that there are
              records or documents relevant to the purposes referred to in
              section 140X on the premises or at the place, or accessible from a
              computer on the premises or at the place.
          (2) The inspector must, either before or as soon as practicable after
              entering those premises or that place, show his or her identity card
              to the occupier, or another person who apparently represents the
              occupier, if the occupier or other person is present at the premises
              or place.
