Clause 105 - Search warrants: other amendments
Serious Organised Crime and Police Bill
3:30 pm
Mr Jonathan Djanogly (Shadow Minister, Home Affairs; Huntingdon, Conservative)
I should like briefly to add to what my hon. Friend has said. The amendment also needs to be looked at in the context of subsection (8), which extends the period for execution of the warrant from one month to three months. To the extent that an all-premises warrant will be wider than a specific premises warrant, there is accordingly a greater chance of the circumstances changing before the warrant expires. Will the Minister address the reasons for the extension of the warrant?
