This Order amends Schedules 3 and 5 to the Sexual Offences Act 2003 (“the Act”). Section 80 of the Act provides that if a person is convicted, found not guilty by reason of insanity or cautioned for an offence listed in Schedule 3 to the Act, or found to be under a disability and to have done the act charged against him in respect of such an offence, then that person is subject to the notification requirements of Part 2 of the Act. An offence under Schedule 3 may also make a person a qualifying offender for the purposes of a foreign travel order under section 114 of the Act. Article 2 of this Order adds three offences to Schedule 3 to the Act in respect of both England and Wales and Northern Ireland. Schedule 5 to the Act lists the offences which, in addition to those listed in Schedule 3, may lead to a person being made subject to a sexual offences prevention order under section 104 of the Act. Article 3 of this Order adds eight offences for England and Wales and nine offences for Northern Ireland to Schedule 5 to the Act. Article 3 also removes from Schedule 5 the three offences being added to Schedule 3.
