Virdee and Another, Regina (on The Application of) v The National Crime Agency: Admn 11 May 2018

The claimants claimed that the defendant had relied upon transcripts of intercepted telephone calls in order to obtain production orders against third parties. They said that the transcripts had been selected for use, making the orders unlawful.
Held: The claim failed. A failure to make necessary disclosure would undermine an order or warrant, but not all the information was material. Full transcripts were not necessary in this case.
