EXPLANATORY NOTE
(This note is not part of the Order)
This Order is the fourteenth commencement order made under the Crime and Courts Act 2013 (c. 22) (“the Act”). It brings into force on 3rd November 2015 the following provisions, which apply only to England and Wales.
Sections 41 and 42 and Schedule 15 are brought into force to coincide with the coming into force of sections 34 to 39 of the Act. By virtue of section 61(7) of the Act sections 34 to 39 come into force at the end of the period of one year beginning with the day on which a body is established by Royal Charter with the purpose of carrying on activities relating to the recognition of independent regulators of relevant publishers. The Press Recognition Panel was duly established on 3rd November 2014 by the Royal Charter on Self-Regulation of the Press granted on 30th October 2013.
Section 41 sets out the definition of ‘relevant publisher’ to whom the new system of exemplary damages (provided for in sections 34 to 39) will apply. Schedule 15 provides exclusions from that definition. Section 42 contains other interpretative provisions.
