Limits on powers and duties of parliamentary security officers

192Powers subject to conditions or limitations in notice of appointment

  1. A parliamentary security officer’s powers are subject to any conditions or limitations specified in the notice of the officer’s appointment under section 135(2).

  2. However, the exercise of a power by a parliamentary security officer is not invalid merely because it did not comply with the conditions specified in the notice of the officer's appointment.
