Explanatory Note

(This note is not part of the Order)

This Order amends the Criminal Justice Act 1988 (Designated Countries and Territories) Order 1991 (S.I. 1991/2873) (“the principal Order”) which provides that, subject to certain modifications, Part VI of the Criminal Justice Act 1988 applies to an order made by a court in a designated country or territory for the purposes of recovering property obtained as a result of or in connection with conduct corresponding to an offence to which Part VI of the Act applies, recovering the value of property so obtained or depriving a person of a pecuniary advantage so obtained.

Article 2 of this Order provides for the court to determine the appropriate authority for a designated country or territory where no such authority is specified, and article 3 of this Order enables evidence as to the appropriate authority to be given by means of a certificate made by the Secretary of State. This Order also adds the United States of America to the countries and territories to which the principal Order applies.
