Police Powers and Responsibilities Act 2000

An access order may state that a police officer may, in relation to documents to which it relates—

exercise the powers in section 184; or

copy the document and return the original document to the cash dealer.

An access order that authorises copying of a document and its return to a cash dealer may order that the document be again produced to a court hearing a proceeding for an offence for which the document is to be used as evidence, if a police officer asks.

If an access order authorises the copying of a document that is in electronic form, the order authorises the police officer to produce a hard-copy of the information contained in the document.
