I'm afraid we find this unclear. We don't know whether it is about business/financial restraint orders, which are a matter for courts rather than for the police, or is about Civil Restraint Orders or restraining orders.

The government needs to do this as clearly as the law states "innocent until proven guilty" however your given the police the powers to dramatically destabilise human life's or livelihood before a trail has ever been heard which on average is putting a financial strain /burden on people for like 4 years
