Article 109

第百九条

When conducting an on-site inspection, search, seizure, or seizure with ordering records of a person's residence, or a residence, building, or other site guarded by a person, a Japan Fair Trade Commission staff member must have the owner or superintendent (including their representative or agent or other person who should act on their behalf), or their employee or cohabitating relative who has attained the age of majority witness it.

委員会職員は、人の住居又は人の看守する邸宅若しくは建造物その他の場所で臨検、捜索、差押え又は記録命令付差押えをするときは、その所有者若しくは管理者(これらの者の代表者、代理人その他これらの者に代わるべき者を含む。)又はこれらの者の使用人若しくは同居の親族で成年に達した者を立ち会わせなければならない。

If it is not possible, in cases under the preceding paragraph, to have a person provided in that paragraph witness the on-site inspection, search, or seizure, a Japan Fair Trade Commission staff member must have a neighbor who has attained the age of majority or a local police official or local government official witness it.

前項の場合において、同項に規定する者を立ち会わせることができないときは、その隣人で成年に達した者又はその地の警察官若しくは地方公共団体の職員を立ち会わせなければならない。

Any body-search of a female must be conducted in the presence of a female witness over the age of majority provided, however, that this does not apply to urgent cases.

女子の身体について捜索するときは、成年の女子を立ち会わせなければならない。ただし、急速を要する場合は、この限りでない。
