Collateral intrusion definition

Collateral intrusion means the intrusion on, or interference with, the privacy of persons other than the subject of the investigation.
Collateral intrusion means intrusion into the privacy of persons other than those who are the subject of the investigation. Measures should be taken to minimise both the risk of such intrusion and the extent of such intrusion. An application for authorisation should consider the risk of such intrusion and the Authorising Officer must take such risk into account in reaching a judgment as to whether or not the proposed directed surveillance/use of covert human intelligence source is proportionate. If the investigation unexpectedly interferes with the privacy of persons who are not covered by the authorisation, the Authorised Officer should be informed.
Collateral intrusion means intrusion into the lives of those not the subject of, or otherwise directly connected with the surveillance by obtaining private information about them. Where it is proposed to conduct surveillance activity specifically against individuals who are not suspected of direct or culpable involvement in the overall matter being investigated, interference with the privacy of such individuals should not be considered as collateral intrusion but as intended intrusion. Any such surveillance should be very carefully considered against the necessity and proportionality criteria.
