Crimes Act 1961

Obtaining evidence by interception devices - Applications for interception warrants in relation to serious violent offences

312CD: Matters of which Judge must be satisfied in respect of applications relating to terrorist offences

You could also call this:

“The judge must check certain things before allowing secret listening for terrorism cases.”

This section of the law has been removed. It used to talk about what a judge needed to be sure of when someone asked for permission to intercept communications related to terrorist crimes. The section was part of the rules for asking to intercept communications for serious violent crimes. It was taken out of the Crimes Act 1961 on 18 April 2012 by another law called the Search and Surveillance Act 2012.
