Commentary on Sections Section 8 - Enforcement authority
17.This section empowers the Welsh Ministers to appoint a person or body as an enforcement authority. Regulations may confer powers or duties on an enforcement authority for the purpose of enforcing provision made by section 14A and by regulations under section 14B, 14C and Schedule A1. This would include (among other things) the power to authorise persons to appoint “inspectors” to exercise the powers of entry and inspection set out in sections 9 and 10 (inserting section 14I and 14J respectively).
