The Regulation of Investigatory Powers (Authorisations Extending to Scotland) (Amendment) Order 2009
The Regulation of Investigatory Powers (Authorisations Extending to Scotland) Order 2007 (“the 2007 Order”) directs, inter alia, that the Home Office, being a public authority which is specified in Schedule 1 to the Regulation of Investigatory Powers Act 2000 (“the 2000 Act”) and in column 1 of the Schedule to the 2007 Order, is a relevant public authority for all parts of the United Kingdom. By virtue of article 2(2) of the 2007 Order, the Home Office is a relevant public authority for all parts of the United Kingdom only to the extent specified in the entry in column 2. This Order amends column 2 of the Schedule to the 2007 Order by substituting “The UK Border Agency” for “The Immigration Service”.
