RIPA: Accessing Communications Data Designated Person / Investigator Workshop (A refresher/update for SPoCs and Designated Persons on the latest news and guidance in this area)

This is a practical workshop on how to access communications data under the Regulation of Investigatory Powers Act 2000 (RIPA). It is essential that those who are seeking to use these powers, as well as those who are authorising their use (Designated Persons), have a good understanding of the law and practice in this area.

This workshop will examine the Code of Practice, the new Home Office forms/guidance and the outcome of the RIPA Review conducted by Lord McDonald QC. It will help your organisation prepare for inspections by the Interception of Communications Commissioner. The workshop is also suitable for those SPoCs wishing to update/refresh their knowledge of this fast developing area.

This is an interactive workshop with plenty of opportunity for questions, discussion and for working through case studies. It carries 4.5 CPD credits.
