Part 1: Bulk Personal Datasets Bulk personal dataset warrants Section 4: Agency head functions
This section makes amendments to a number of provisions in Part 7 of the IPA 2016 in which a function is conferred on the head of an intelligence service. The amendment aims to make clear that such functions can be carried out by a Crown Servant on behalf of the head of the intelligence service, as is currently the case in respect of a number of other functions elsewhere in the IPA 2016 (e.g., making an application for a warrant).
