Regulation of Investigatory Powers Act 2000
2000 CHAPTER 23
Other Authorisations
Part V: Miscellaneous and Supplemental
Schedule 3: The Tribunal
Paragraph 5: Officers
385.Sub-paragraph (1) provides for the appointment of officers of the Tribunal by the Secretary of State, after consultation with the Tribunal. The Secretary of State may not therefore proceed unilaterally to make appointments. The provision itself places no limitation on the number of officers and (subject to Treasury approval as numbers) allows flexibility over the numbers, grades and individuals.
386.Sub-paragraph (2) enables an officer who is so authorised by the Tribunal to obtain documents or information on the Tribunal’s behalf.
