Clause 50

Any person duly authorised by the Commissioner or the Director may at any time and, if need be, by force enter into any premises or vessel in which a person who is or is reasonably suspected to be a case or carrier or contact of any infectious disease is or has recently been present for the purpose of preventing the spread of the infectious disease.

For the purpose of carrying out any provision of this Act or the regulations made thereunder, the Commissioner may requisition for such period as he thinks necessary any vehicle or vessel and the owner of the vehicle or vessel shall be entitled to a reasonable compensation for the use and detention of the vehicle or vessel.

Any place, which in the opinion of the Director, is suitable for the isolation and treatment of persons who are or are reasonably suspected to be cases or carriers or contacts of an infectious disease may be requisitioned by the Director and used for such purpose if unoccupied, without notice, and if occupied, after a written notice has been served on the owner or occupier or posted in a conspicuous position at the place; and the owner or occupier shall be entitled to a reasonable compensation for the occupation of the place during the period of requisition.
