  interceptions of such communications by the use of that equipment or line.

(2) This warrant authorises:

• (a)

  entry on the premises:

  • (i)

    *at any time of the day or night/*during the hours of [specify hours during which entry on the premises is authorised], for the purposes mentioned in paragraph (1) (a); and

   *(ii) without permission first being sought or demand first being made; and

 [specify measures authorised to be taken].

(3) I am satisfied:

• (a)

  that subsection 48 (2) of the Act has been complied with in relation to the application for this warrant; and

• (b)

  on the basis of the information given to me by the applicant agency, that:

  • (i)

    section 46 of the Act would empower me to issue a warrant if the application had been made under that section; and

  • (ii)

    Division 3 of Part 2‑5 of the Act has been complied with in relation to this application; and

  • (iii)

    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 applicant agency of the following *serious offence/*serious offences, in which

   *the particular person mentioned above is involved:

   *another person is involved, with whom the particular person mentioned above is likely to communicate using the service:

   [short particulars of the serious offence or serious offences]; and
