Book excerpt: In March 2015, the Intelligence and Security Committee (ISC) published Privacy and Security: A modern and transparent legal frameworkThis was a detailed investigation into the intrusive capabilities used by the Agencies. The Committee concluded that the investigatory powers the Agencies were authorised to employ were necessary and proportionate - and they remain of this view. However, the Committee did not consider that there was sufficient openness or transparency about those powers. Their key recommendation therefore was that the current legal framework governing the Agencies' powers should be replaced by a new Act of Parliament, clearly setting out all the intrusive powers available to the Agencies, the purposes for which they may use them, and the authorisation required before they may do so. In November 2015, the Government published the draft Investigatory Powers Bill. The draft Bill makes some attempt to improve transparency; however, the Committee is disappointed to note that it does not cover all the Agencies' intrusive capabilities. This failure to address the Committee's key recommendation means that various powers and authorisations remain scattered throughout different pieces of legislation. As a result, the draft Bill is handicapped from the outset in terms of the extent to which it can provide a clear and comprehensive legal framework to govern the use and oversight of investigatory powers. This Report outlines the issues that the Committee believes are cause for concern.

Book excerpt: Under the provisions of the Draft Investigatory Powers Bill an additional protection would apply for members of the UK, devolved and European Parliaments with regard to the issue of targeted warrants to intercept, obtain by equipment interference or examine their communications. Before making a decision on whether to issue such a warrant, the Secretary of State would be required to consult the Prime Minister. As well, the required code of practice for the obtaining or holding of communications data would have to include provision about particular considerations applicable to communications between members of Parliament and their constituents.

Book excerpt: [This convenience copy of the official report by the UK Independent Reviewer of Terrorism Legislation, made available under OGLv3 on a cost-only basis] Modern communications networks can be used by the unscrupulous for purposes ranging from cyber-attack, terrorism and espionage to fraud, kidnap and child sexual exploitation. A successful response to these threats depends on entrusting public bodies with the powers they need to identify and follow suspects in a borderless online world. But trust requires verification. Each intrusive power must be shown to be necessary, clearly spelled out in law, limited in accordance with international human rights standards and subject to demanding and visible safeguards. The current law is fragmented, obscure, under constant challenge and variable in the protections that it affords the innocent. It is time for a clean slate. This Report aims to help Parliament achieve a world-class framework for the regulation of these strong and vital powers.

Select Committee on Science and Technology and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2016 with total page 41 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The draft Investigatory Powers Bill was published by the Government on 4 November 2015. Ministers have been clear that the intention of this Bill is to consolidate and clarify existing legislation on the interception of communications and the acquisition of communications data and to modernise the law in the light of developments in communications technologies, in order to maintain the operational capabilities of law enforcement agencies and the intelligence and security services. Previous attempts to legislate in this area have met with criticisms over the lack of consultation with communications service providers (CSPs) on matters of technical feasibility and cost. In our inquiry we have focused on technological aspects of the draft Bill in order to identify the main technological issues involved and how these might affect the communications businesses that will have to collect data and cooperate with the security authorities. If law enforcement agencies and the intelligence and security services are effectively to combat terrorism and serious crime, they must have the means to keep pace with developments in communications. They will doubtless need to continue to deploy a range of methods for intercepting and acquiring information about communications. The evidence we have received suggests there are still many unanswered questions about how this legislation will work in the fast moving world of technological innovation. It is essential that the integrity and security of legitimate online transactions is maintained if we are to trust in, and benefit from, the opportunities of an increasingly digital economy.

This book was released on 2017 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This text provides a clear and accessible introduction to the Investigatory Powers Act, a foundational piece of UK national security law. This act repeals part I, chapters 1 and 2 of the Regulation of Investigatory Powers Act 2000 and other surveillance legislation. This new legislation is the blueprint for how state agencies, the police, and internet and telephone companies protect privacy and extract data and information to protect the public from terrorism and is used to prosecute serious criminals. This legislation implements some parts of the recent comprehensive report by David Anderson QC, A Question of Trust: Report of the Investigatory Powers Review, it will put the Data Retention and Investigatory Powers Act 2014 on a substantive footing and attempt to bring existing legislation up to date to reflect technological advances. The passage of the bill was highly controversial and subject to considerable public criticism by the media and civil liberties and human rights groups as well as lobbying by insiders from the Security Service, the Secret Intelligence Service, GCHQ and the police. The Joint Committee on the Draft Investigatory Powers Bill criticised the Bill's definition of 'data' as "unclear, unhelpful, and recursive" and expressed concerns about the meaning of the term 'Internet Connection Record' as well as the Home Secretary's failure to make sufficient case as to the feasibility of their collection, retention, and use by law enforcement. All of these issues indicate the questions that practitioners will have to face when In the absence of other sources of reliable interpretation for practitioners, this Blackstone's Guide is essential in helping readers navigate and understand the new and complex set of provisions.

It applies to the whole of the UK.
