Arrest for breach of immigration bail

I279C1C1710
1 An immigration officer or a constable may arrest without warrant a person on immigration bail if the immigration officer or constable—

b has reasonable grounds for suspecting that the person is failing, or has failed, to comply with a bail condition.
2 Sub-paragraph (3) applies if an appropriate judicial officer is satisfied that there are reasonable grounds for believing that a person liable to be arrested under this paragraph is to be found on any premises.

a direct that the person is to be detained under the provision mentioned in paragraph 1(1) under which the person is liable to be detained, or
