33  Identification tests not to be carried out in cruel, inhuman or degrading manner etc.
  For the purposes of this Act, the carrying out of the identification test is not of itself taken:
 (a) to be cruel, inhuman or degrading; or
 (b) to be a failure to treat a person with humanity and with respect for human dignity.
However, nothing in this Act authorises the carrying out of the identification test in a cruel, inhuman or degrading manner, or in a manner that fails to treat a person with humanity and with respect for human dignity.
