(c)that—
(i)it is not practicable to communicate with any person entitled to grant entry to the premises;
(ii)entry to the premises will not be granted unless a warrant is produced; or
(iii)the investigation for the purpose of which the application is made might be seriously prejudiced unless a constable arriving at the premises could secure immediate entry to them.
