(2)Any person who enters any land or premises in exercise of a right conferred by or under this Part is entitled to—

(a)survey and examine the land or premises, and

(3)A right to enter any land or premises conferred by or under this Part may be exercised only at a reasonable time.

(4)The occupants of the land or premises concerned must be given at least 24 hours' notice before any person exercises any such right in relation to it unless—

(a)the situation is urgent, or

(b)the person entitled to exercise the power considers that giving such notice would defeat the object of the proposed entry.

[F1(4A)In relation to the exercise of the right conferred by section 181(1A), the reference to occupants in subsection (4) is to be read as including the tenant, the landlord and any known agent of the landlord.]

(5)A person authorised to exercise any right conferred by or under this Part must, if required to do so, produce written evidence of that authorisation.

(6)Subsection (5) does not apply to a constable in uniform seeking to exercise a right without warrant.

(7)A right conferred by this section applies despite any term to the contrary in any tenancy, occupancy arrangement or other agreement.

(8)Any person who enters any land or premises in exercise of a right conferred by or under this Part—

(i)such other persons, and

(ii)such equipment,

as may be reasonably required for the purposes of assisting that person,

(b)must leave the land or premises as effectually secured against unauthorised entry as that person found it, and

(c)must compensate any other person who has sustained damage as a result of—

(i)the exercise of the right or power, or

(ii)any failure to comply with paragraph (b),

unless the damage is attributable to the fault of the person who sustained it.

(9)Any question of disputed compensation under subsection (8)(c) is to be determined by arbitration; and, where there is no agreement as to who is to be appointed as arbiter, as to the procedure to be followed at the arbitration or as to the defraying of related expenses, the Scottish Ministers must appoint an arbiter, specify the procedure or, as the case may be, determine liability for expenses.

(10)A warrant granted under section 182 or 183 continues in force until the purpose for which the warrant was issued has been fulfilled or, if earlier, the expiry of such period as the warrant may specify.

(11)Any person who, without reasonable excuse, prevents or obstructs any other person from doing anything which is authorised by a warrant granted under section 182 or 183 is guilty of an offence and liable on summary conviction to a fine not exceeding level 3 on the standard scale.
