Will work inside IR35. Or for food. -
They can now also lie in court about how they got the information.
Section 56 of the act as passed sets out a number of matters that are now prohibited from being brought up in court. The exact wording of section 56(1) is as follows:
Exclusion of matters from legal proceedings etc.
(1) No evidence may be adduced, question asked, assertion or disclosure made or other thing done in, for the purposes of or in connection with any legal proceedings or Inquiries Act proceedings which (in any manner)—
(a) discloses, in circumstances from which its origin in interception-related conduct may be inferred—
(i) any content of an intercepted communication, or
(ii) any secondary data obtained from a communication, or
(b) tends to suggest that any interception-related conduct has or may have occurred or may be going to occur.
This is subject to Schedule 3 (exceptions).
And you as the accused have to go along with this since it is illegal under the act to question the evidence given where that questioning may infer or confirm that interception took place.
And in case you were wondering just who is now allowed to exercise the powers of the act, here is the definitive list. Including Food Hygiene Inspectors.

System upgrade issue maybe. In which case, the same result could happen to whatever system stores the IP to address records.Don't believe it, until you see it!Comment
