Report of the Remembrancer.

The Board considered a report of the Remembrancer concerning the provisions of the Investigatory Powers Bill.

In response to a query on why the City of London Police (CoLP) was not included amongst the bodies able to apply for a warrant such as the National Crime Agency (NCA) and the Metropolitan Police, the Commander explained that the cost of intercepting information prohibited the CoLP from acting independently. However, it worked closely with the NCA and would work with the Agency on matters such as this.

RESOLVED – That the content of the report be noted.
