Explanatory Note

(This note is not part of the Order)

This Order brings into force on 31st July 1989 the provisions of the Criminal Justice Act 1988 which extend the power of the Court of Appeal to order a retrial and make provision for documentary and other evidence before courts-martial, appeals against orders restricting or preventing reports of or restricting public access to Crown Court proceedings, and for the giving of notice of appeal against orders relating to contempt of court, and associated amendments and repeals. It brings into force on 15th February 1990 (the date on which the next electoral register, from which jurors are summoned, will be published) the provision in the Criminal Justice Act 1988 raising from 65 to 70 the maximum age at which a person is qualified for jury service. An associated amendment to section 3(1) of the Juries Act 1974 (c. 23) provides for the necessary information to be included on the electoral register as from that date.
