This Section introduces restrictions on both the use of investigatory powers under Sections 96 and 97 in respect of persons servings in an intelligence service and on the use of powers of entry conferred by Part 5 of the Act in relation to premises used for intelligence service purposes.
	Subsection (1) provides that neither the power to obtain documents or information (Section 96) or the related power to enter premises to obtain documents or information (Section 97) may be exercised in relation to a person serving in an intelligence service unless the Secretary of State certifies that the condition in subsection (3) is met.
	Subsection (2) provides that the powers of entry contained in Part 5 of the Act cannot be used to gain entry to premises, or parts of premises, that are used for intelligence service purposes unless the condition in subsection (3) is met.
	Subsection (3) provides that the condition referred to in subsections (1) and (2) is met if the Secretary of State is satisfied and certifies that exercise of the power will not be contrary to the public interest or prejudicial to national security, the prevention or detection of serious crime, or the economic well-being of the United Kingdom. Subsection (4) provides that the Secretary of State may impose conditions on the exercise of the powers in any certificate issued under subsections (1) or (2).
	Subsection (5) provides that no provision in Part 5 of the Act requires an individual to produce documents containing intelligence service information or provide intelligence service information, unless the Secretary of State has issued a certificate under subsection (1).
	Subsection (6) defines key terms used in the Section, to provide clarity. In particular, the term "intelligence service information" is defined as information that has been obtained directly or indirectly from, or which relates to, an intelligence service or a person acting on behalf of an intelligence service.
