Part 1: Bulk Personal Datasets Low or no reasonable expectation of privacy New section 226CB of the IPA 2016: Cancellation of authorisation
This section sets out that the head of an intelligence service (or another Crown Servant acting on their behalf) may cancel a category or individual authorisation at any time during its duration (subsection (1)) and must do so where certain cancellation conditions are met (subsection (2)).
	Subsection (3) provides the cancellation conditions for individual authorisations. These are that: the dataset described in the authorisation no longer meets the test in section 226A, the authorisation is no longer necessary, the conduct authorised is no longer proportionate, or that the intelligence service no longer has arrangements approved by the Secretary of State for the storage of datasets authorised under Part 7A or for protecting them from unauthorised disclosure.
	Subsection (4) provides that the cancellation condition for category authorisations is that the test in section 226A no longer applies to any dataset that falls within the category described in the authorisation.
