EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Order)

This Order repeals the requirement that penalty notices for disorder must be in a form prescribed by regulations made by the Secretary of State. The repeal does not alter the information which section 3 of the Criminal Justice and Police Act 2001 (c.16) provides must be stated on the penalty notice when issued to a person, nor the provisions for prescribing by statutory instrument the amount of the penalty which may be levied under section 3 of that Act.

The Order is made under the provisions of the Legislative and Regulatory Reform Act 2006 (c.51) to remove a burden resulting from legislation, namely the element of section 3 of the Criminal Justice and Police Act 2001 (c. 16) that requires the form of a penalty notice for disorder to be prescribed by regulations. It makes a consequential revocation of the regulations that have prescribed the forms of penalty notice.

2006 c.51. Section 13(1) has been amended by the Government of Wales Act 2006 (Consequential Modifications and Transitional Provisions) Order 2007 (S.I. 2007/1388), Schedule 1, paragraph 147. See also section 32 for the definitions of “Minister of the Crown” and “regulatory function”.

(2)
