Here is an article which is more detailed about it:

The new system of enforcement looks a lot like the old system. The ISPs send out a series of notifications and warnings--which many ISPs have done for years--to someone suspected of illegally downloading films and music. What is new is that if the warnings are ignored, then the ISPs will eventually implement a series of tougher measures.

I've read about americans getting such warnings for years now, so there must be some kind of logs in place by the ISP already. Also for other criminal investigations, don't you think?
