RIPA (& RIPSA) Services
Discover Our RIPA (& RIPSA) Services
RIPA Application Drafting &/or RIPA Gatekeeping Service
We understand how difficult it can be to draft an application or authorisation for activities under RIPA (or RIPSA). That’s why we are here. We can draft your applications or authorisations for you to just to review and sign.
We offer a RIPA Gatekeeping Service where we review and quality assure the applications or authorisations that you have drafted.
We have years of experience of writing and quality assuring activites under RIPA so, rest assured, you are in safe hands!
We can quality assure or write any of the following applications or authorisations:
- Directed Surveillance
- Intrusive Surveillance (& Property Interference)
- Covert Human intelligence Sources (CHIS)
- Test Purchase Operations
- Undercover Activity.
We offer an ad-hoc service for a single application or authorisation or if you are likely to have a number of applications and authorisations then we offer an annual subscription service. Whichever you choose it will be very cost-effective.
RIPA Policy Writing/Review Service
We offer a RIPA (or RIPSA) policy review service.
We can review your organisation’s current policy to check if it fit for purpose and up to date. We can suggest any amendments that need to be included or if you prefer, we can do a complete write/rewrite for you.
RIPA (or RIPSA) Advice
Often people find themselves in situations where they are unsure if they need a RIPA authority or authorisation.
We can offer you our advice whereby we consider your situation and based on the legislation, guidance and operational experience we can give you advice as to whether or not an authorisation should be sought and practical solutions.
Pre-IPCO Inspections
We offer a pre-IPCO inspection service to ‘stress’ test your systems, processes and to review your applications and authorisations.
This will provide you with valuable feedback as to where IPCO are likely to identify any issues. This way you can be prepared and have your answers/action plans ready. Our pre-inspection service also takes account of the IPCO Data Assurance Programme to ensure that you are fully aware of any likely issues in advance of the formal inspection. We have a proven track record of working with organisations to secure an improved inspection report and this has on more than one occasion been the subject of positive comment by IPCO.
