Sections 7(3) and 7(4) of the Data Retention and Investigatory Powers Act 2014 provide that the Independent Reviewer must, so far as reasonably practicable, complete the review before 1 May 2015 and must send to the Prime Minister a report on the outcome of the review as soon as reasonably practicable after completing the review.
