I just want to ask, in practical terms, how difficult or how easy it is to get the authorization. As a layperson, I can see that there's a difference between authorization and the application for a warrant. For a warrant, perhaps it could take more steps or a higher threshold. Authorization can be much easier and simpler, perhaps just a certification saying that the minister has considered the need for this kind of action. Then it could be approved. I can also draw reference to when a police officer is trying to get into a home to search. I think they can get a warrant quite fast. It doesn't take days and hours for them to get it.
Practically, then, how difficult is it to get this authorization?
