The Laws of Chess
#15
While we might expect arbiters to use suitable discretion Ken, the power given is actually to exclude them or anyone else whether appropriate or not. It's one of a few places where excessive powers are claimed. It doesn't seem to have been thought though at all. What if the event is in a public building? The right to refuse entry would not belong to the arbiter, unless (presumably) granted by or transferred from the local authority. Also, people might also think twice about traveling to spectate if they could be turned away at the door.
