Police Powers and Responsibilities Act 2000

This section applies to a controlled operation involving conduct mentioned in section 244(3) if authorised by the chief executive officer under section 243 before the commencement.

It is declared that nothing in section 244(1)(g)(iii) prevented the controlled operation being granted authority by the chief executive officer under section 243.

To remove any doubt, it is declared that the authority to conduct the controlled operation, and anything done in reliance on the authority, is, and is taken to have always been, as valid as if section 244(3) had been in force at the time of the authorisation or conduct.
