Special references by Tribunal to Commissioner E+W+S+N.I.

(b) it appears to the Tribunal from the allegations made by the complainant that it is appropriate for there to be an investigation into whether the Intelligence Service or GCHQ has in any other respect acted unreasonably in relation to the complainant or his property,

they shall refer that matter to the Commissioner.

(2) The Commissioner may report any matter referred to him under sub-paragraph (1) above to the Secretary of State [F1 or, in any case which relates to a warrant which was issued by them (by virtue of provision made under section 63 of the Scotland Act 1998), to the Scottish Ministers].
