Explanatory Note
(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations extend to Scotland only. The Sex Offenders Act 1997 (“the 1997 Act”) specifies in Part I that certain sex offenders are subject to requirements to notify certain personal details to the police. Section 2(5) of the 1997 Act (as amended by the Criminal Justice and Court Services Act 2000 (c. 51) (“the 2000 Act”)) provides for such notifications to be given in some cases by attending at any police station in a person’s local police area and in other cases by sending a written notice to any such police station. “Local police area” is defined in section 2(7) of the 1997 Act. The 2000 Act also introduced a power for the Scottish Ministers to provide for section 2(5) of the 1997 Act to have effect such that instead of the required notification being at, or by writing to, any police station in a person’s local police area, the police station would be one prescribed by regulations. These Regulations have the effect, accordingly, of requiring notifications to be made by attending at, or writing to, any police station in a person’s local police area provided that station is mentioned in the list set out in the Schedule.
(1)
1997 c. 51. Section 2(6C) was inserted by paragraph 3 of Schedule 5 to the Criminal Justice and Court Services Act 2000 (c. 43) (“the 2000 Act”), and section 10(6) was inserted by paragraph 9 of Schedule 5 to the 2000 Act. The functions of the Secretary of State were transferred to the Scottish Ministers by virtue of section 53 of the Scotland Act 1998 (c. 46) as read with section 81(6) of the 2000 Act which deemed section 66 of, and Schedule 5 to, the 2000 Act to be pre-commencement enactments within the meaning of the said 1998 Act.
(2)
Section 2(5) was amended by paragraph 2 of Schedule 5 to the 2000 Act
