(b)of the fact that the fingerprints or sample are taken under the power conferred by this paragraph, and
(c)that the fingerprints or sample may be the subject of a relevant search.
(5)The matters mentioned in sub-paragraph (4) must be recorded as soon as practicable after the fingerprints or non-intimate sample are taken.
(6)The information mentioned in sub-paragraph (4) must be given by—

(7)Where a sample of hair other than pubic hair is to be taken under this paragraph, the sample may be taken either by cutting hairs or by plucking hairs with their roots so long as no more are plucked than the person taking the sample reasonably considers to be necessary for a sufficient sample.
2(1)A constable may exercise the power under paragraph 1 to take fingerprints or a non-intimate sample from an individual only if at the time when the power is to be exercised—
(a)in the case of fingerprints, the condition in sub-paragraph (2) is met;
(b)in the case of a sample, the condition in sub-paragraph (3) is met.
(2)The condition in the case of fingerprints is that—
(a)the individual has not had fingerprints taken under paragraph 1 on a previous occasion after the time on which the present TPIM notice came into force, or
(b)fingerprints were so taken on a previous occasion after that time but—
(i)the fingerprints taken do not constitute a complete set of the individual’s fingerprints, or
(ii)some or all of the fingerprints taken are not of sufficient quality to allow satisfactory analysis, comparison or matching.
(3)The condition in the case of a non-intimate sample is that—

(b)may direct the individual to attend at a specified time of day or between specified times of day.
(3)In specifying a period or time or times of day for the purposes of sub-paragraph (2), the constable must consider whether the fingerprints or non-intimate sample could reasonably be taken at a time when the individual is for any other reason required to attend the police station (including, in particular, under measures imposed on the individual by virtue of paragraph 10 of Schedule 1).
(4)In giving a requirement under this paragraph a constable may specify a period of shorter than 7 days if—

(a)the fact of the authorisation, and
(b)the reasons for giving it,
must be recorded as soon as practicable after it has been given.
(6)If the constable who gives a requirement to an individual under this paragraph and the individual agree, it may be varied so as to specify any period within which, or date or time at which, the individual must attend; but a variation does not have effect unless confirmed by the constable in writing.
