These Rules relate to applications to the magistrates’ court for drinking banning orders and interim drinking banning orders under sections 3 and 9 respectively of the Violent Crime Reduction Act 2006 (“the 2006 Act”).
Section 3 of the 2006 Act enables a chief officer of police, the Chief Constable of the British Transport Police or a local authority to apply for a drinking banning order. A drinking banning order prohibits an individual from doing things specified in the order. These orders can be made in relation to persons aged sixteen or over if the court finds that they have engaged in criminal or disorderly conduct while under the influence of alcohol and that such an order is necessary to protect other persons (including the protection of their property from unlawful loss or damage) from further conduct by them of that kind while under the influence of alcohol.
