Standard legal procedure following such a search requires making an inventory of any property found, providing a copy of this inventory to the person searched, and sending the found property (along with the person if applicable) to the police for further legal action. If nothing is found, a nil inventory is typically documented and also sent to the police. Giving an inventory of the property found on search to the *management concerned* is not a specified requirement under Section 12 or standard search procedures; the procedure mandates documentation for the person searched and liaison with the police.
