Section 21: Enforcement officers

43.This section provides a definition of “enforcement officers” who are individuals designated as such by the Organising Committee.

44.Subsection (2) restricts the power of designation so that only inspectors of weights and measures (commonly known as trading standards officers) or other individuals who meet criteria specified in regulations may be designated. Designation of an inspector of weights and measures may only be made with the consent of the council which appointed the person to be an inspector of weights and measures.
