65C   Notice of entry

(1)  Before an authorised agent of an authorised licensed network operator exercises a power of entry under this Division, the authorised licensed network operator concerned must give the occupier (or, if there is no occupier, the owner) of the land written notice of the intention to enter the land.
(2)  The notice must specify the day on which the authorised agent intends to enter the land and must be given at least 2 days before that day.
(3)  This section does not require notice to be given:
(a)  if entry to the land is made with the consent of the occupier (or, if there is no occupier, the owner) of the land, or
(b)  if entry is required urgently and the case is one in which the authorised licensed network operator has authorised in writing (either generally or in the particular case) entry without notice, or
(c)  if the giving of notice would defeat the purpose for which the power is to be exercised.
