The Order provides that for NCIS the persons designated for the purposes of granting an authorisation under section 28 and section 29 of the Regulation of Investigatory Powers Act 2000 are, in addition to a Superintendent, any individual holding a position at Grade M4, or any individual on secondment to NCIS who holds an office, rank or position which is designated for this purpose in the public authority from where he is seconded. The Order similarly amends the offices, ranks and positions in NCIS prescribed for urgent cases.
