Point in time view as at 20/12/2023.
Investigatory Powers Act 2016, Section 145 is up to date with all changes known to be in force on or before 17 August 2024. There are changes that may be brought into force at a future date. Changes that have been made appear in the content and are referenced with annotations.
Changes and effects yet to be applied by the editorial team are only applicable when viewing the latest version or prospective version of legislation. They are therefore not accessible when viewing legislation as at a specific point in time. To view the ‘Changes to Legislation’ information for this provision return to the latest version view using the options provided in the ‘What Version’ box above.
(1)The provisions of a bulk interception warrant may be modified at any time by an instrument issued by the person making the modification.
(2)The only modifications that may be made under this section are—
(a)adding, varying or removing any operational purpose specified in the warrant as a purpose for which any intercepted content or secondary data obtained under the warrant may be selected for examination, and
(b)providing that the warrant no longer authorises or requires (to the extent that it did so previously)—
(i)the interception of any communications in the course of their transmission by means of a telecommunication system, or
(ii)the obtaining of any secondary data from communications transmitted by means of such a system.
(3)In this section—
(a)a modification adding or varying any operational purpose as mentioned in paragraph (a) of subsection (2) is referred to as a “major modification”, and
(b)any other modification within that subsection is referred to as a “minor modification”.
(4)A major modification—
(a)must be made by the Secretary of State, and
(b)may be made only if the Secretary of State considers that it is necessary on any of the grounds on which the Secretary of State considers the warrant to be necessary (see section 138(1)(b)).
(5)Except where the Secretary of State considers that there is an urgent need to make the modification, a major modification has effect only if the decision to make the modification is approved by a Judicial Commissioner.
(6)A minor modification may be made by—
(a)the Secretary of State, or
(b)a senior official acting on behalf of the Secretary of State.
(7)Where a minor modification is made by a senior official, the Secretary of State must be notified personally of the modification and the reasons for making it.
(8)If at any time a person mentioned in subsection (6) considers that any operational purpose specified in a warrant is no longer a purpose for which the examination of intercepted content or secondary data obtained under the warrant is or may be necessary, the person must modify the warrant by removing that operational purpose.
(9)The decision to modify the provisions of a warrant must be taken personally by the person making the modification, and the instrument making the modification must be signed by that person.
This is subject to subsection (10).
(10)If it is not reasonably practicable for an instrument making a major modification to be signed by the Secretary of State, the instrument may be signed by a senior official designated by the Secretary of State for that purpose.
(11)In such a case, the instrument making the modification must contain a statement that—
(a)it is not reasonably practicable for the instrument to be signed by the Secretary of State, and
(b)the Secretary of State has personally and expressly authorised the making of the modification.
(12)Despite section 136(2), the modification of a bulk interception warrant as mentioned in subsection (2)(b) above does not prevent the warrant from being a bulk interception warrant.
(13)Nothing in this section applies in relation to modifying the provisions of a warrant in a way which does not affect the conduct authorised or required by it.
