[Note. See regulations 85 to 94 of the Criminal Justice and Data Protection (Protocol No. 36) Regulations 2014.
Where the Lord Chancellor receives a request for the monitoring and enforcement in England and Wales of a supervision measure ordered in another European Union member State, a magistrates’ court to which the request is given must monitor and enforce that measure unless one of the specified grounds for refusal applies. The grounds for refusal are listed at the end of this Part.
Under regulation 91 of the 2014 Regulations, the defendant may be arrested for breach of the measure and subsequently detained by the court for up to 28 days (or 21 days, in the case of a defendant who is under 18).
Under regulation 90 of the 2014 Regulations, the magistrates’ court may cease the monitoring and enforcement where the requesting authority takes no further decision in response to notice of a breach of the measure. Under regulation 93, the court ceases to be responsible for the monitoring and enforcement of the measure where regulation 90 applies and in the other cases listed in regulation 93.]
