13. Every local municipality is responsible for seeing to the application, in its territory, of any regulation made under section 11. For the purpose of verifying the application of such a regulation and of a by-law made under section 12, such a municipality may designate any person to act as an inspector.

Inspectors may, in the exercise of inspection functions,

(1)  enter, at any reasonable time, and inspect any premises where the inspector has reasonable cause to believe that a property is located or an activity is carried on under the responsibility of a person referred to in a regulation made under section 11 or a by-law made under section 12;

(2)  take photographs or make recordings of the person’s property or activities;

(3)  require a person who is on the premises to provide reasonable assistance; and

(4)  require, within the time the inspector specifies, any information relating to the application of this subdivision and the communication of any relevant document.

Inspectors must, on request, identify themselves and produce a document attesting their capacity.
