1 Authorisation
(1) I, [name], *an eligible Judge/*a nominated ART member within the meaning of the Telecommunications (Interception and Access) Act 1979 (the Act), acting under section 46 of the Act, authorise interceptions of communications made to or from the telecommunications service mentioned above. (2) I am satisfied, on the basis of the information given to me by the applicant agency, that: (a) Division 3 of Part 2‑5 of the Act has been complied with in relation to the application for this warrant; and *(b) because of urgent circumstances, it was necessary to make the application by telephone; and (c) there are reasonable grounds for suspecting that the particular *person/*persons mentioned above *is/*are using, or *is/*are likely to use, the service; and (d) a community safety supervision order is in force (including because of section 6UA of the Act) in relation to another person, and the particular *person/*persons mentioned above *is/*are likely to communicate with the other person using the service; and (e) information that would be likely to be obtained by intercepting under a warrant communications made to or from the service would be likely to substantially assist in connection with: *(i) achieving a Part 9.10 object; or *(ii) determining whether the community safety supervision order, or any succeeding community safety supervision order, has been, or is being, complied with.
Note: For paragraph (2)(d), section 6UA of the Act deems community safety supervision orders to be in force if they have been made but not yet come into force.
(3) I am satisfied, on the basis of the information given to me by the applicant agency, that the warrant should be issued having regard to the following matters only: (a) how much the privacy of any person or persons would be likely to be interfered with by intercepting under a warrant communications made to or from the service; (b) how much the information referred to in paragraph (2)(e) would be likely to assist in connection with: (i) achieving a Part 9.10 object; or (ii) determining whether the community safety supervision order, or any succeeding community safety supervision order, has been, or is being, complied with; (c) to what extent methods for: (i) achieving a Part 9.10 object; or (ii) determining whether the community safety supervision order, or any succeeding community safety supervision order, has been, or is being, complied with; that do not involve so intercepting communications have been used by, or are available to, the applicant agency; (d) how much the use of such methods would be likely to assist in connection with: (i) achieving a Part 9.10 object; or (ii) determining whether the community safety supervision order, or any succeeding community safety supervision order, has been, or is being, complied with; (e) how much the use of such methods would be likely to prejudice: (i) achieving a Part 9.10 object; or (ii) determining whether the community safety supervision order, or any succeeding community safety supervision order, has been, or is being, complied with; whether because of delay or for any other reason; (f) whether intercepting under a warrant communications made to or from the service would be the method that is likely to have the least interference with any person’s privacy; (g) the possibility that the person in relation to whom the community safety supervision order is in force: (i) has contravened, is contravening or will contravene the community safety supervision order; or (ii) will contravene a succeeding community safety supervision order; *(h) [if the applicant agency is an interception agency of Victoria] any submissions made by the Victorian PIM under section 44A of the Act to me; *(i) [if the applicant agency is an interception agency of Queensland] any submissions made by the Queensland PIM under section 45 of the Act to me. (4) I am satisfied that: *the applicant agency has exhausted all other practicable methods of identifying the telecommunications services used, or likely to be used, by the person to whom the community safety supervision order relates. *interception of communications made to or from a telecommunications service used or likely to be used by the person to whom the community safety supervision order relates would not otherwise be possible. (5) This warrant is issued on the basis of the community safety supervision order mentioned in paragraph (2)(d), details of which are specified in the following table.
