In regard to the authorised officers and the warrant card, I understand this enhances the powers of the IHRB and strengthens its processes. I have received complaints about it. Personally, I would not necessarily share those views. I think the authorised officer is a process. What difficulties have been encountered in terms of gaining access to premises using the authorised officer warrant card and the powers that come with it? Are there difficult scenes? Is there any resistance?
