12 \ Model Law on Computer and Computer Related Crime i. the investigation in connection with which the search was carried out; ii. another ongoing investigation; or iii. any criminal proceedings that are pending or that may be brought in relation to any of those investigations. Production of data 15. If a magistrate is satisfied on the basis of an application by a police officer that specified computer data, or a printout or other information, is reasonably required for the purpose of a criminal investigation or criminal proceedings, the magistrate may order that: (a) a person in the territory of [enacting country] in control of a computer system produce from the system specified computer data or a printout or other intelligible output of that data; and (b) an internet service provider in [enacting country] produce information about persons who subscribe to or otherwise use the service; and (c) [a person in the territory of [enacting country] who has access to a specified computer system process and compile specified computer data from the system and give it to a specified person.] NOTE: As noted in the expert group report, in some countries it may be necessary to apply the same standard for production orders as is used for a search warrant because of the nature of the material that may be produced. In other countries it may be sufficient to employ a lower standard because the production process is less invasive than the search process.

Option 2 16. If a magistrate is satisfied on the basis of an ex parte application by a police officer that specified data stored in a computer system is reasonably required for the purpose of a criminal investigation or criminal proceedings, the magistrate may order that a person in control of the computer system disclose sufficient traffic data about a specified communication to identify: (a) the service providers; and
