Explanatory note

(This note is not part of the Order)

This Order commences the provisions of section 44 of and Part 4 of Schedule 16 to the Crime and Courts Act 2013 (c. 22) (“the Act”).

Section 44 gives effect to Schedule 16 to the Act. Part 4 to Schedule 16 amends the Criminal Justice Act 2003 (c. 44) to include a new type of electronic monitoring requirement for community orders and suspended sentence orders. This is a requirement that allows for an individual’s movements to be tracked for reasons other than for monitoring compliance with another requirement of their community order or suspended sentence order.

Section 44 of and Part 4 of Schedule 16 to the Act have been partially in force in order to pilot the requirement, by virtue of the Crime and Courts Act 2013 (Commencement No. 15, Transitional and Savings Provisions) Order 2016 (S.I. 2016/962) which was extended by S.I. 2017/976 until 30th June 2018, and the Crime and Courts Act 2013 (Commencement No. 17, Transitional and Savings Provisions) Order 2017 (S.I. 2017/236).
