Privacy International and Others v Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs and Others: CA 9 Mar 2021

Is a policy which the appellants say ‘authorises’ officers of the Security Service (MI5) to run undercover agents who participate in the commission of criminal offences unlawful? Its difficulty is shown by the very fact that, on that question, two of the five members of the Investigatory Powers Tribunal (‘the Tribunal’), whose decision is under appeal to this court, dissented from the majority view.
