State Act
Section 5. Powers and duties of Inspectors.
THE ASSAM INDUSTRIES ESTABLISHMENTS (CONFERMENT OF PERMANENT STATUS TO WORKMEN) ACT, 1985
This Act was repealed on a date we do not have by The Assam Repealing (No.I) Act, 2017 (Assam Act No. XIX of 2017) (named as the Act repealing it in the Assam Legislative Department's list of repealed Acts, alphabetical_repealed_act_final.pdf; the list gives no date); it may still apply to matters that began before then.
5. Powers and duties of Inspectors.—Subject to any rules made by the Government in this behalf, the inspector may, within the local limits for which he is appointed,— (a) enter at all reasonable times and with such assistance, if any, who are persons in the service of the Government or of any local authority as he thinks fit to take with him, any industrial establishments; (b) make such examination of the industrial establishments and of any registers, records and notices and take on the spot or elsewhere the evidence of such persons as he may deem necessary, for carrying out the purposes of this Act; and, (e) exercise such other powers as may be necessary for carrying out the purposes of this Act.
