261AD General rules for carrying out identification tests
               An identification test under this Division:
                (a) must be carried out in circumstances affording reasonable
                     privacy to the non-citizen; and
                (b) if the non-citizen so requests and it is practicable to comply
                     with the request—must not be carried out in the presence or
                     view of a person who is of the opposite sex to the
                     non-citizen; and
                (c) must not be carried out in the presence or view of a person
                     whose presence is not necessary for the purposes of the
                     identification test or is not required or permitted by another
                     provision of this Act; and
                (d) must not involve the removal of more clothing than is
                     necessary for carrying out the test; and
                (e) must not involve more visual inspection than is necessary for
                     carrying out the test; and
                 (f) if the test is one of 2 or more identification tests to be carried
                     out on the non-citizen—must be carried out at the same time
                     as the other identification tests, if it is practicable to do so.
