application has been made to me, by (full name and rank, if any, of person) on
behalf of (name of agency) for a warrant in respect of the following
telecommunications service, namely (here give description and location of
service): AND WHEREAS I,, an eligible judge, am satisfied, on the basis of the
information given to me under Part VI of the
Telecommunications (Interception)  Act 1979 in connection with the
application, that:

   (a)  Division 3 of that Part has been complied with in relation to the
        application;
%(b) because of urgent circumstances, it was necessary to make the application
by telephone;

   (c)  there are reasonable grounds for suspecting that a particular person,
        namely (full name of person and, if known, the address and occupation
        of that person) is using, or is likely to use, the service;

   (d)  information that would be likely to be obtained by intercepting under
        a warrant communications made to or from the service would be likely
        to assist in connection with the investigation by the agency that
        applied for this warrant of the following class 2 * offence/*
        offences/, in which that person is involved, namely (set out short
        particulars of the class 2 * offence/* offences/); and

   (e)  having regard to:

        (i)    how much the privacy of any person or persons would be likely
               to be interfered with by intercepting under a warrant
               communications made to or from that service;

        (ii)   the gravity of the conduct constituting the * offence/ *
               offences/ being investigated;

        (iii)  how much the information referred to in paragraph (d) would be
               likely to assist in connection with the investigation by that
               agency of the * offence/ * offences/;

        (iv)   to what extent methods of investigating the * offence/ *
               offences/ that do not involve intercepting communications have
               been used by, or are available to, that agency;

        (v)    how much the use of such methods would be likely to assist in
               connection with the investigation by that agency of the *
               offence/ * offences/; and

        (vi)   how much the use of such methods would be likely to prejudice
               the investigation by that agency of the * offence/ * offences/,
               whether because of delay or for any other reason;
and to no other matters; I should issue a warrant authorising such
communications to be intercepted: NOW THEREFORE I, pursuant to section 46 of
the Telecommunications  (Interception) Act 1979 , hereby authorise members of
