      (3) A constable must not enter a dwelling house under subsection (1) or (2) at any time during the period commencing at 9 p.m. on a day and ending at 6 a.m. on the following day unless the constable believes on reasonable grounds that:

      (a) it would not be practicable to arrest the person, either at the dwelling house or elsewhere, at another time; or

      3ZC Use of force in making arrest

      (1) A person must not, in the course of arresting another person for an offence, use more force, or subject the other person to greater indignity, than is necessary and reasonable to make the arrest or to prevent the escape of the other person after the arrest.

      (2) Without limiting the operation of subsection (1), a constable must not, in the course of arresting a person for an offence:

      (a) do anything that is likely to cause the death of, or grievous bodily harm to, the person unless the constable believes on reasonable grounds that doing that thing is necessary to protect life or to prevent serious injury to another person (including the constable); or

      (2) It is sufficient if the other person is informed of the substance of the offence, and it is not necessary that this be done in language of a precise or technical nature.

      (3) Subsection (1) does not apply to the arrest of the other person if:

      (a) the other person should, in the circumstances, know the substance of the offence for which he or she is being arrested; or

      (b) the other person’s actions make it impracticable for the person making the arrest to inform the other person of the offence for which he or she is being arrested.

      3ZE Power to conduct a frisk search of an arrested person
