It contains comprehensive treatment of police powers both at common law and under the Police and Criminal Evidence Act 1984 (and subsequent legislation), including powers of personal search as well as searches of premises." "This new edition has been updated to take account of major statutory developments, such as the controls of surveillance contained in the Regulations of Investigatory Powers Act 2000 and the money laundering provisions of the Proceeds of Crime Act 2002. The provisions of the Criminal Justice Act 2003 are also covered."--BOOK JACKET.
