59C  Inspectors' powers under Fair Work and other Acts
 (1) An inspector has the same functions and powers as a Fair Work Inspector.
 (2) However, the functions and powers of an inspector:
 (a) may be performed or exercised only in relation to a building matter; and
 (b) are subject to such conditions and restrictions as are specified in his or her instrument of appointment.
 (3) A matter is a building matter if it relates to a building industry participant.
 (4) For the purposes of the performance of the functions and the exercise of the powers of an inspector in relation to a building matter:
 (a) a reference in an Act to a Fair Work Inspector has effect as if it were a reference to an inspector; and
 (b) a reference in an Act to the Fair Work Ombudsman has effect as if it were a reference to the Director.
 (5) To avoid doubt, this section does not provide for the Fair Work Ombudsman to give directions to an inspector under section 704 or 705 of the FW Act.
