In our Authority, if, for whatever reason, a police officer doesn't wish to put sufficient detail on to a s.29 form, we require that the form is counter-signed by a DI or above as confirmation/verification that the request is legitimate and necessary.
We appreciate that there may be circumstances in which the police may not wish to disclose certain information relating to an investigation and this ensures that this only occurs where considered absolutely necessary (and puts the onus back on the police if they are challenged on it further down the line).
