edit: found information about emergency authorisation Here's the bill under discussion [1] : This article states that it brings in new warrants, and makes no mention of "without a judge's warrant" [2]. Perhaps the original article is keying off of: "(aab) to establish procedures for certain law enforcement officers of the Australian Federal Police or the Australian Crime Commission to obtain warrants and emergency authorisations" [3] "emergency authorisations" would appear to not require a warrant, but it does include language of "it is not practicable in the circumstances to apply for a <warrant>" [4] However, I'm not Australian, and definitely not a lawyer.
