the purpose of finding out whether the requirements of this Act are being
complied with.

(3) The magistrate must not issue the warrant unless the authorised person or
some other person has given to the magistrate, either orally or by affidavit,
such further information (if any) as the magistrate requires concerning the
grounds on which the issue of the warrant is being sought.

(4) The warrant must:

   (a)  authorise an authorised person (whether or not named in the warrant),
