Dyma’r fersiwn wreiddiol (fel y’i gwnaed yn wreiddiol).
2(1)Subject to sub-paragraph (2) below, any person authorised by a local authority may, on production (if so required) of his authority, enter any premises at any reasonable time—
(a)for the purpose of ascertaining whether or not a statutory nuisance exists; or
(b)for the purpose of taking any action, or executing any work, authorised or required by Part III.
(2)Admission by virtue of sub-paragraph (1) above to any premises used wholly or mainly for residential purposes shall not except in an emergency be demanded as of right unless twenty-four hours notice of the intended entry has been given to the occupier.
(3)If it is shown to the satisfaction of a justice of the peace on sworn information in writing—
(a)that admission to any premises has been refused, or that refusal is apprehended, or that the premises are unoccupied or the occupier is temporarily absent, or that the case is one of emergency, or that an application for admission would defeat the object of the entry; and
(b)that there is reasonable ground for entry into the premises for the purpose for which entry is required,
the justice may by warrant under his hand authorise the local authority by any authorised person to enter the premises, if need be by force.
(4)An authorised person entering any premises by virtue of sub-paragraph (1) or a warrant under sub-paragraph (3) above may—
(a)take with him such other persons and such equipment as may be necessary;
(b)carry out such inspections, measurements and tests as he considers necessary for the discharge of any of the local authority’s functions under Part III; and
(c)take away such samples or articles as he considers necessary for that purpose.
(5)On leaving any unoccupied premises which he has entered by virtue of sub-paragraph (1) above or a warrant under sub-paragraph (3) above the authorised person shall leave them as effectually secured against trespassers as he found them.
(6)A warrant issued in pursuance of sub-paragraph (3) above shall continue in force until the purpose for which the entry is required has been satisfied.
(7)Any reference in this paragraph to an emergency is a reference to a case where the person requiring entry has reasonable cause to believe that circumstances exist which are likely to endanger life or health and that immediate entry is necessary to verify the existence of those circumstances or to ascertain their cause and to effect a remedy.
