copy of each warrant issued to the authority, and of each instrument under
section 52 or 57 of the Commonwealth Act revoking such a warrant, as soon
as practicable after the issue or revocation of the warrant;
(b)
within 3 months after a warrant issued to the authority ceases to be in
force, a written report about —
(i)
the use made by the authority of information obtained by
interceptions under the warrant; and
(ii)
the communication of that information to persons other
than officers of the authority;
and
(c) as
soon as practicable, and in any event within 3 months, after each
30 June, a written report that sets out the information
that —
(i)
Division 2 of Part IX of the Commonwealth Act
requires to be set out in the Commonwealth Minister’s report under that

other law prevents the chief officer of an eligible authority from giving to
the responsible Minister anything the chief officer is required by this
section to give to that Minister.
