Section 18 In UK Law could mena a variety of things However Usually "A section 18" as a term relates to A Section 18 Premises Search carried out by police officers when someone is held in custody on suspicion of a crime and there is reasonable suspicion that if the suspect is released and a warrant is applied for (which generally takes 2 days or so) then evidence of the crime will be lost The Duty officer in these circumstances can authorise Police officers to attend the address and search the property for items to do with that crime. the occupiers at the address will be given a form with the powers of entry on which will be signed by the search manager and all officers on the search would be listed. on this. any property found is logged in a search record book (Book 101) and signed by any occupant present. all seized items are to be bagged and tagged at scene and the seal numbers placed in the search record.

If you are charged with section 18 under UK law you are charged with wounding or causing grievous bodily harm. This means you intentionally harms someone instead of it being an accident.

How old do you have to be to buy fireworks in the UK?

Contrary to the previous answer, to smoke or purchase tobacco in the UK you have to be 18. If somebody sells you tobacco when you are underage, they are breaking the law, and so are you, but they get fined or whatever and you are offered free advice from the NHS (National Health Service - we get medical care free in the UK). I advise you don't smoke under any condition as it is severely damaging to your health.
