Guidelines
Non-compliance occurs when the operator of a sufferance warehouse fails to allow an officer free access to the warehouse, when requested.
The officer must first request to enter premises.
Ensure that entry is prevented or refused by a person in charge or responsible for facility.
Suspension of licence should be considered and may be applied simultaneously with the AMPS penalty.
Apply a penalty per instance.
For failure to allow access to any premises under the control of a person who transports or causes goods to be transported within Canada, see C042.
For failure to allow access to a bonded warehouse or duty free shop, see C046.
