1^I27 A National Crime Agency, consisting of the NCA officers, is to be formed.

2^I27 The NCA is to be under the direction and control of one of the NCA officers, who is to be known as the Director General of the National Crime Agency.

^I2193 The NCA is to have—

a the functions conferred by this section;

b the functions conferred by the Proceeds of Crime Act 2002; and

c the other functions conferred by this Act and by other enactments.

^I2194 The NCA is to have the function (the “crime-reduction function”) of securing that efficient and effective activities to combat organised crime and serious crime are carried out (whether by the NCA, other law enforcement agencies, or other persons).

^I2195 The NCA is to have the function (the “criminal intelligence function”) of gathering, storing, processing, analysing, and disseminating information that is relevant to any of the following—

a activities to combat organised crime or serious crime;

b activities to combat any other kind of crime;

c exploitation proceeds investigations (within the meaning of section 341(5) of the Proceeds of Crime Act 2002), exploitation proceeds orders (within the meaning of Part 7 of the Coroners and Justice Act 2009), and applications for such orders.

^I2196 The NCA must discharge the crime-reduction function in the following ways (in particular).

^I2197 The first way is by the NCA itself—

a preventing and detecting organised crime and serious crime,

b investigating offences relating to organised crime or serious crime, and

c otherwise carrying out activities to combat organised crime and serious crime, including by instituting criminal proceedings in England and Wales and Northern Ireland.

^I2198 The second way is by the NCA securing that activities to combat organised crime or serious crime are carried out by persons other than the NCA.

^I2199 The third way is by the NCA securing improvements—

a in co-operation between persons who carry out activities to combat organised crime or serious crime, and

b in co-ordination of activities to combat organised crime or serious crime.

^I21910 The crime-reduction function does not include—

a the function of the NCA itself prosecuting offences; or

b the function of the NCA itself instituting criminal proceedings in Scotland.

^I21911 In this Part, a reference to activities to combat crime (or a particular kind of crime, such as organised crime or serious crime) is a reference to—

a the prevention and detection of crime (or that kind of crime),

b the investigation and prosecution of offences (or offences relating to that kind of crime),

c the reduction of crime (or that kind of crime) in other ways, and

d the mitigation of the consequences of crime (or that kind of crime);

and references to the carrying out of activities to combat crime (or a particular kind of crime) are to be construed accordingly.

^I28^I22012 Schedule 1 (the NCA & NCA officers) has effect.

^I2352 Modification of NCA functions¶

1 The Secretary of State may, by order, make—

a provision about NCA counter-terrorism functions (and, in particular, may make provision conferring, removing, or otherwise modifying such functions); and

b other provision which the Secretary of State considers necessary in consequence of provision made under paragraph (a) (and, in particular, may make provision about the functions of any person other than the NCA, including provision conferring or otherwise modifying, but not removing, such functions).

2 If an order under this section confers an NCA counter-terrorism function, an NCA officer may only carry out activities in Northern Ireland for the purpose of the discharge of the function if the NCA officer does so with the agreement of the Chief Constable of the Police Service of Northern Ireland.

3 That includes cases where an order under this section confers an NCA counter-terrorism function by the modification of a function.

4 An order under this section may amend or otherwise modify this Act or any other enactment.

5 An order under this section is subject to the super-affirmative procedure (see section 58 and Schedule 23).

a enabling business of the Supreme Court, or of the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council, to be carried on without interference or delay;

b maintaining order;

c securing the safety of any person in the court building.

6 A Supreme Court security officer acting in the execution of the officer's duty may remove any person from a courtroom at the request of—

a a judge of the Supreme Court, or

b a member of the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council.

7 The powers given by subsections (3), (4) and (6) include power to use reasonable force, where necessary.

51C Surrender, seizure and retention of knives and other articles

1 If a Supreme Court security officer acting in the execution of the officer's duty reasonably believes that an article in the possession of a person who is in, or seeking to enter, a court building ought to be surrendered on any of the grounds given in subsection (2), the officer must ask the person to surrender the article; and, if the person refuses to surrender the article, the officer may seize it.

2 The grounds are that the article—

a may jeopardise the maintenance of order in the court building (or a part of it),

b may put the safety of any person in the court building at risk, or

c may be evidence of, or in relation to, an offence.

3 Subject to subsection (4), a Supreme Court security officer may retain an article which was—

a surrendered in response to a request under subsection (1), or

b seized under that subsection,

until the time when the person who surrendered it, or from whom it was seized, is leaving the court building.

4 If a Supreme Court security officer reasonably believes that the article may be evidence of, or in relation to, an offence, the officer may retain it until—

a the time when the person who surrendered it, or from whom it was seized, is leaving the court building, or

b the end of the permitted period,

whichever is the later.

5 In subsection (4) “the permitted period” means such period, not exceeding 24 hours from the time the article was surrendered or seized, as will enable the Supreme Court security officer to draw the article to the attention of a constable.

6 Subsections (3) to (5) do not apply where a knife is—

a surrendered to a Supreme Court security officer in response to a request under subsection (1), or

b seized by a Supreme Court security officer under that subsection,

but, instead, the knife must be retained in accordance with regulations under section 51D(3) unless returned or disposed of in accordance with those regulations or regulations under section 51D(1).

7 If a Supreme Court security officer reasonably believes that a retained knife may be evidence of, or in relation to, an offence, nothing in subsection (6) prevents the officer retaining the knife for so long as necessary to enable the officer to draw it to the attention of a constable.

8 In this section “knife” includes—

a a knife-blade, and

b any other article which—

i has a blade or is sharply pointed, and

ii is made or adapted for use for causing injury to the person.

51D Regulations about retention of knives and other articles

1 The Lord Chancellor may by regulations make provision as to—

a the provision to persons—

i by whom articles have been surrendered in response to a request under subsection (1) of section 51C, or

ii from whom articles have been seized under that subsection,

of written information about the powers of retention of Supreme Court security officers,

b the keeping of records about articles which have been so surrendered or seized,

c the period for which unclaimed articles have to be kept, and

d the disposal of unclaimed articles at the end of that period.

2 In subsection (1) “unclaimed article” means an article—

a which has been retained under section 51C,

b which a person is entitled to have returned,

c which has not been returned, and

d whose return has not been requested by a person entitled to it.

3 Without prejudice to the generality of subsection (1), the Lord Chancellor must by regulations make provision as to—

a the procedure to be followed when a knife is retained under section 51C;

b the making of requests by eligible persons for the return of knives so retained;

c the procedure to be followed when returning a knife pursuant to a request made in accordance with the regulations.

4 In subsection (3)—

“eligible person”, in relation to a knife retained under section 51C, means—
1. the person who surrendered the knife under subsection (1) of section 51C or from whom the knife was seized under that subsection, or
2. any other person specified in regulations under subsection (3);
“knife” has the same meaning as in section 51C.

51E Assaulting and obstructing Supreme Court security officers

1 Any person who assaults a Supreme Court security officer acting in the execution of the officer's duty commits an offence.

2 A person guilty of an offence under subsection (1) is liable on summary conviction—

a to imprisonment for a term not exceeding 12 months, or

b to a fine not exceeding level 5 on the standard scale, or

c to both.

3 Subsection (2) applies—

a in England and Wales in relation to offences committed before the commencement of section 154(1) of the Criminal Justice Act 2003 (general limit on magistrates' court's power to impose imprisonment), and

b in Northern Ireland,

as if the reference to 12 months were a reference to 6 months.

4 A person who resists or wilfully obstructs a Supreme Court security officer acting in the execution of the officer's duty commits an offence.

5 A person guilty of an offence under subsection (4) is liable on summary conviction to a fine not exceeding level 3 on the standard scale.

2 In section 48(3)(a) of the Constitutional Reform Act 2005 (delegation of President's functions to chief executive) after “under section 49(1)” insert “ or 51A(1)(a) or (b) ”.

2 After subsection (1) insert—

3 In subsection (2) (leave under subsection (1)(a): grant, refusal, conditions, withdrawal and amendment)—

a after “paragraph (a) of subsection (1)” insert “ , or under subsection (1A), ”,

b for “if granted may” substitute

, and

c after “leave; and” insert—

4 In subsection (1) (activities which are contempt of court) after paragraph (c) insert—

^I8432 Enabling the making, and use, of films and other recordings of proceedings¶

1 The Lord Chancellor may, by order made with the concurrence of the Lord Chief Justice, provide that a section mentioned in subsection (2) or any provision of either of those sections—

a does not apply in relation to the making of a recording or the making of a prescribed recording;

b does not apply in relation to the making of a recording, or the making of a prescribed recording, if prescribed conditions are met, including conditions as to a court or tribunal or any other person being satisfied as to anything or agreeing;

c does not apply in relation to prescribed use of a prescribed recording.

2 Those sections are—

a section 41 of the Criminal Justice Act 1925 (no photography or drawing in court of persons involved in proceedings, and no publication of contravening images);

b section 9 of the Contempt of Court Act 1981 (no sound recording in court without permission, and no public playing of recordings).

3 In the case of any particular proceedings of a court or tribunal, the court or tribunal may in the interests of justice or in order that a person is not unduly prejudiced—

a direct that a provision disapplied in relation to the proceedings by an order under subsection (1) is, despite the order, to apply in relation to the proceedings, or

b direct that a provision disapplied in relation to the proceedings by an order under subsection (1) is, despite the order, disapplied in relation to the proceedings only if conditions specified in the direction are met.

4 No appeal may be made against—

b a decision not to give a direction under that subsection.

8 In section 9 of the Contempt of Court Act 1981 after subsection (4) insert—

33 Abolition of scandalising the judiciary as form of contempt of court¶

1 Scandalising the judiciary (also referred to as scandalising the court or scandalising judges) is abolished as a form of contempt of court under the common law of England and Wales.

2 That abolition does not prevent proceedings for contempt of court being brought against a person for conduct that immediately before that abolition would have constituted both scandalising the judiciary and some other form of contempt of court.

Publishers of news-related material: damages and costs¶

^I118634 Awards of exemplary damages¶

1 This section applies where—

a a relevant claim is made against a person (“the defendant”),

b the defendant was a relevant publisher at the material time,

c the claim is related to the publication of news-related material, and

d the defendant is found liable in respect of the claim.

2 Exemplary damages may not be awarded against the defendant in respect of the claim if the defendant was a member of an approved regulator at the material time.

3 But the court may disregard subsection (2) if—

a the approved regulator imposed a penalty on the defendant in respect of the defendant's conduct or decided not to do so,

b the court considers, in light of the information available to the approved regulator when imposing the penalty or deciding not to impose one, that the regulator was manifestly irrational in imposing the penalty or deciding not to impose one, and

c the court is satisfied that, but for subsection (2), it would have made an award of exemplary damages under this section against the defendant.

4 Where the court is not prevented from making an award of exemplary damages by subsection (2) (whether because that subsection does not apply or the court is permitted to disregard that subsection as a result of subsection (3)), the court—

a may make an award of exemplary damages if it considers it appropriate to do so in all the circumstances of the case, but

b may do so only under this section.

5 Exemplary damages may be awarded under this section only if they are claimed.

6 Exemplary damages may be awarded under this section only if the court is satisfied that—

a the defendant's conduct has shown a deliberate or reckless disregard of an outrageous nature for the claimant's rights,

b the conduct is such that the court should punish the defendant for it, and

c other remedies would not be adequate to punish that conduct.

7 Exemplary damages may be awarded under this section whether or not another remedy is granted.

8 The decision on the question of—

a whether exemplary damages are to be awarded under this section, or

b the amount of such damages,

must not be left to a jury.

^I119135 Relevant considerations¶

1 This section applies where the court is deciding whether the circumstances of the case make it appropriate for exemplary damages to be awarded under section 34.

2 The court must have regard to the principle that exemplary damages must not usually be awarded if, at any time before the decision comes to be made, the defendant has been convicted of an offence involving the conduct complained of.

3 The court must take account of the following—

a whether membership of an approved regulator was available to the defendant at the material time;

b if such membership was available, the reasons for the defendant not being a member;

c so far as relevant in the case of the conduct complained of, whether internal compliance procedures of a satisfactory nature were in place and, if so, the extent to which they were adhered to in that case.

4 The reference in subsection (3)(c) to “internal compliance procedures” being in place is a reference to any procedures put in place by the defendant for the purpose of ensuring that—

a material is not obtained by or on behalf of the defendant in an inappropriate way, and

b material is not published by the defendant in inappropriate circumstances.

5 The court may regard deterring the defendant and others from similar conduct as an object of punishment.

6 This section is not to be read as limiting the power of the court to take account of any other matters it considers relevant to its decision.

^I119036 Amount of exemplary damages¶

1 This section applies where the court decides to award exemplary damages under section 34.

2 The court must have regard to these principles in determining the amount of exemplary damages—

a the amount must not be more than the minimum needed to punish the defendant for the conduct complained of;

b the amount must be proportionate to the seriousness of the conduct.

3 The court must take account of these matters in determining the amount of exemplary damages—

a the nature and extent of any loss or harm caused, or intended to be caused, by the defendant's conduct;

b the nature and extent of any benefit the defendant derived or intended to derive from such conduct.

4 The court may regard deterring the defendant and others from similar conduct as an object of punishment.

5 This section is not to be read as limiting the power of the court to take account of any other matters it considers relevant to its decision.

^I118937 Multiple claimants¶

1 This section applies where a relevant publisher—

a is a defendant to a relevant claim, and

b is found liable to two or more persons in respect of the claim (“the persons affected”).

2 In deciding whether to award exemplary damages under section 34 or the amount of such damages to award (whether to one or more of the persons affected), the court must take account of any settlement or compromise by any persons of a claim in respect of the conduct.

3 But the court may take account of any such settlement or compromise only if the defendant agrees.

4 If the court awards exemplary damages under section 34 to two or more of the persons affected, the total amount awarded must be such that it does not punish the defendant excessively.

5 If the court awards exemplary damages under section 34 to one or more of the persons affected, no later claim may be made for exemplary damages as regards the conduct.

^I118838 Multiple defendants¶

1 Any liability of two or more persons for exemplary damages awarded under section 34 is several (and not joint or joint and several).

2 Subsection (1) has effect subject to the law relating to the liability of a partner for the conduct of another partner.

3 Where the liability of two or more persons for exemplary damages is several, no contribution in respect of the damages may be recovered by any of them under section 1 of the Civil Liability (Contribution) Act 1978.

^I118739 Awards of aggravated damages¶

1 This section applies where—

a a relevant claim is made against a person (“the defendant”),

b the defendant was a relevant publisher at the material time,

c the claim is related to the publication of news-related material, and

d the defendant is found liable in respect of the claim.

2 Aggravated damages may be awarded against the defendant only to compensate for mental distress and not for purposes of punishment.

3 In this section, “aggravated damages” means damages that were commonly called aggravated before the passing of this Act and which—

a are awarded against a person in respect of the person's motive or exceptional conduct, but

b are not exemplary damages or restitutionary damages.

4 Nothing in this section is to be read as implying that, in cases where this section does not apply, aggravated damages may be awarded for purposes of punishment.

^I114741 Meaning of “relevant publisher”¶

1 In sections 34 to 39, “relevant publisher” means a person who, in the course of a business (whether or not carried on with a view to profit), publishes news-related material—

a which is written by different authors, and

b which is to any extent subject to editorial control.

This is subject to subsections (5) and (6).

2 News-related material is “subject to editorial control” if there is a person (whether or not the publisher of the material) who has editorial or equivalent responsibility for—

a the content of the material,

b how the material is to be presented, and

c the decision to publish it.

3 A person who is the operator of a website is not to be taken as having editorial or equivalent responsibility for the decision to publish any material on the site, or for content of the material, if the person did not post the material on the site.

4 The fact that the operator of the website may moderate statements posted on it by others does not matter for the purposes of subsection (3).

5 A person is not a “relevant publisher” if the person is specified by name in Schedule 15.

6 A person is not a “relevant publisher” in so far as the person's publication of news-related material is in a capacity or case of a description specified in Schedule 15.

7 But a person who is not a “relevant publisher” as a result of paragraph 8 of that Schedule (micro-businesses) is nevertheless to be regarded as such if the person was a member of an approved regulator at the material time.

^I115742 Other interpretative provisions¶

1 This section applies for the purposes of sections 34 to 41.

2 “Approved regulator” means a body recognised as a regulator of relevant publishers.

3 For the purposes of subsection (2), a body is “recognised” as a regulator of relevant publishers if it is so recognised by any body established by Royal Charter (whether established before or after the coming into force of this section) with the purpose of carrying on activities relating to the recognition of independent regulators of relevant publishers.

4 “Relevant claim” means a civil claim made in respect of any of the following—

a libel;

b slander;

c breach of confidence;

d misuse of private information;

e malicious falsehood;

f harassment.

5 For the purposes of subsection (4)—

a the reference to a claim made in respect of the misuse of private information does not include a reference to a claim made by virtue of Article 82 of the UK GDPR or section 168 or 169 of the Data Protection Act 2018 (compensation for contravention of the data protection legislation) ;

b the reference to a claim made in respect of harassment is a reference to a claim made under the Protection from Harassment Act 1997.

5A In subsection (5)(a), “the UK GDPR” has the same meaning as in Parts 5 to 7 of the Data Protection Act 2018 (see section 3(10) and (14) of that Act).

6 The “material time”, in relation to a relevant claim, is the time of the events giving rise to the claim.

7 “News-related material” means—

a news or information about current affairs,

b opinion about matters relating to the news or current affairs, or

c gossip about celebrities, other public figures or other persons in the news.

8 A relevant claim is related to the publication of news-related material if the claim results from—

a the publication of news-related material, or

b activities carried on in connection with the publication of such material (whether or not the material is in fact published).

9 A reference to the “publication” of material is a reference to publication—

a on a website,

b in hard copy, or

c by any other means;

and references to a person who “publishes” material are to be read accordingly.

10 A reference to “conduct” includes a reference to omissions; and a reference to a person's conduct includes a reference to a person's conduct after the events giving rise to the claim concerned.

Self-defence¶

43 Use of force in self-defence at place of residence¶

1 Section 76 of the Criminal Justice and Immigration Act 2008 (use of reasonable force for purposes of self-defence etc) is amended as follows.

3 In subsection (6) at the beginning insert “ In a case other than a householder case, ”.

4 After subsection (8) insert—

8A For the purposes of this section “a householder case” is a case where—

b the force concerned is force used by D while in or partly in a building, or part of a building, that is a dwelling or is forces accommodation (or is both),

c D is not a trespasser at the time the force is used, and

d at that time D believed V to be in, or entering, the building or part as a trespasser.

8B Where—

a a part of a building is a dwelling where D dwells,

b another part of the building is a place of work for D or another person who dwells in the first part, and

c that other part is internally accessible from the first part,

that other part, and any internal means of access between the two parts, are each treated for the purposes of subsection (8A) as a part of a building that is a dwelling.

8C Where—

a a part of a building is forces accommodation that is living or sleeping accommodation for D,

b another part of the building is a place of work for D or another person for whom the first part is living or sleeping accommodation, and

c that other part is internally accessible from the first part,

that other part, and any internal means of access between the two parts, are each treated for the purposes of subsection (8A) as a part of a building that is forces accommodation.

8D Subsections (4) and (5) apply for the purposes of subsection (8A)(d) as they apply for the purposes of subsection (3).

8E The fact that a person derives title from a trespasser, or has the permission of a trespasser, does not prevent the person from being a trespasser for the purposes of subsection (8A).

8F In subsections (8A) to (8C)—

“building” includes a vehicle or vessel, and
“forces accommodation” means service living accommodation for the purposes of Part 3 of the Armed Forces Act 2006 by virtue of section 96(1)(a) or (b) of that Act.

5 In subsection (9) (section intended to be clarificatory) after “This section” insert “ , except so far as making different provision for householder cases, ”.

6 An amendment made by this section does not apply in respect of force used before the amendment comes into force.

^I4354 Deportation on national security grounds: appeals¶

1 Section 97A of the Nationality, Immigration and Asylum Act 2002 (deportation on national security grounds: appeal rights) is amended as follows.

2 After subsection (1) insert—

3 For subsection (2)(c) substitute—

4 After subsection (2) insert—

2A The person while in the United Kingdom may not bring or continue an appeal under section 2 of the Special Immigration Appeals Commission Act 1997—

a against the decision to make the deportation order, or

b against any refusal to revoke the deportation order,

unless the person has made a human rights claim while in the United Kingdom.

2B Subsection (2A) does not allow the person while in the United Kingdom to bring or continue an appeal if the Secretary of State certifies that removal of the person—

a to the country or territory to which the person is proposed to be removed, and

b despite the appeals process not having been begun or not having been exhausted,

would not breach the United Kingdom's obligations under the Human Rights Convention.

2C The grounds upon which a certificate may be given under subsection (2B) include (in particular)—

a that the person would not, before the appeals process is exhausted, face a real risk of serious irreversible harm if removed to the country or territory to which the person is proposed to be removed;

b that the whole or part of any human rights claim made by the person is clearly unfounded.

2D Subsection (2A) does not allow the person while in the United Kingdom to bring an appeal on a non-human-rights ground, or to continue an appeal so far as brought on non-human-rights grounds, if the Secretary of State certifies that removal of the person—

a to the country or territory to which the person is proposed to be removed, and

b despite the appeals process, so far as relating to appeal on non-human-rights grounds, not having been begun or not having been exhausted,

would not breach the United Kingdom's obligations under the Human Rights Convention.

2E In subsection (2D) “non-human-rights ground” means any ground other than the ground that removal of the person from the United Kingdom in consequence of the decision to make the deportation order would be unlawful under section 6 of the Human Rights Act 1998 as being incompatible with a person's Convention rights.

2F If a certificate in respect of a person is given under subsection (2B), the person may apply to the Special Immigration Appeals Commission to set aside the certificate.

2G If a person makes an application under subsection (2F) then the Commission, in determining whether the certificate should be set aside, must apply the principles that would be applied in judicial review proceedings.

2H The Commission's determination of a review under subsection (2F) is final.

2J The Commission may direct that a person who has made and not withdrawn an application under subsection (2F) is not to be removed from the United Kingdom at a time when the review has not been finally determined by the Commission.

2K Sections 5 and 6 of the Special Immigration Appeals Commission Act 1997 apply in relation to reviews under subsection (2F) (and to applicants for such reviews) as they apply in relation to appeals under section 2 or 2B of that Act (and to persons bringing such appeals).

2L Any exercise of power to make rules under section 5 of that Act in relation to reviews under subsection (2F) is to be with a view to securing that proceedings on such reviews are handled expeditiously.

5 In subsection (3) (appeal against certificate under subsection (2)(c)(iii)) for “(2)(c)(iii)” substitute “ (2D) ”.

5A Driving or being in charge of a motor vehicle with concentration of specified controlled drug above specified limit

1 This section applies where a person (“D”)—

a drives or attempts to drive a motor vehicle on a road or other public place, or

b is in charge of a motor vehicle on a road or other public place,

and there is in D's body a specified controlled drug.

2 D is guilty of an offence if the proportion of the drug in D's blood or urine exceeds the specified limit for that drug.

3 It is a defence for a person (“D”) charged with an offence under this section to show that—

a the specified controlled drug had been prescribed or supplied to D for medical or dental purposes,

b D took the drug in accordance with any directions given by the person by whom the drug was prescribed or supplied, and with any accompanying instructions (so far as consistent with any such directions) given by the manufacturer or distributor of the drug, and

c D's possession of the drug immediately before taking it was not unlawful under section 5(1) of the Misuse of Drugs Act 1971 (restriction of possession of controlled drugs) because of an exemption in regulations made under section 7 of that Act (authorisation of activities otherwise unlawful under foregoing provisions).

4 The defence in subsection (3) is not available if D's actions were—

a contrary to any advice, given by the person by whom the drug was prescribed or supplied, about the amount of time that should elapse between taking the drug and driving a motor vehicle, or

b contrary to any accompanying instructions about that matter (so far as consistent with any such advice) given by the manufacturer or distributor of the drug.

5 If evidence is adduced that is sufficient to raise an issue with respect to the defence in subsection (3), the court must assume that the defence is satisfied unless the prosecution proves beyond reasonable doubt that it is not.

6 It is a defence for a person (“D”) charged with an offence by virtue of subsection (1)(b) to prove that at the time D is alleged to have committed the offence the circumstances were such that there was no likelihood of D driving the vehicle whilst the proportion of the specified controlled drug in D's blood or urine remained likely to exceed the specified limit for that drug.

7 The court may, in determining whether there was such a likelihood, disregard any injury to D and any damage to the vehicle.

8 In this section, and in sections 3A, 6C(1), 6D and 10, “specified” means specified in regulations made—

a by the Secretary of State, in relation to driving or attempting to drive, or being in charge of a vehicle, in England and Wales;

2 A staff transfer scheme may provide for a period before a person became employed in the civil service of the state under a staff transfer scheme to count as a period during which the person was employed in the civil service of the state (and for the operation of the scheme not to be treated as having interrupted the continuity of that period).

b which could be made by the county court if the proceedings were in the county court.

2 In its application to a power of the High Court to issue a writ directed to an enforcement officer, subsection (1)(a) gives the family court power to issue a warrant, directed to an officer of the family court, containing provision corresponding to any that might be contained in the writ.

3 Subsection (1) is subject to section 38(3) of the County Courts Act 1984.

4 Subsection (1) is without prejudice to, and not limited by, any other powers of the family court.

5 The Lord Chancellor may by regulations make provision, about or in connection with the effect or execution of warrants issued by the family court for enforcing any order or judgment enforceable by the court, that corresponds to any provision applying in relation to the effect or execution of writs issued by the High Court, or warrants issued by the county court, for the purpose of enforcing any order or judgment enforceable by that court.

31F Proceedings and decisions

1 The family court may adjourn a hearing, and may do so at any time including a time before the hearing has begun.

2 Any order made by the family court—

a may be absolute or conditional;

b may be final or interim;

c may, subject to rules of court, be made without taking evidence.

3 Every judgment and order of the family court is, except as provided by this or any other Act or by rules of court, final and conclusive between the parties.

4 Where the family court has power to require the doing of anything other than the payment of money, or to prohibit the doing of anything, an order of the court made in exercising the power may contain provision—

a as to the manner in which anything is to be done,

b as to the time within which anything is to be done,

c as to the time during which anything is not to be done, and

d generally for giving effect to the order.

5 Where the family court has power to require the payment of money, an order of the court made in exercising the power may allow time for payment or order payment by instalments; and where the court has ordered payment by instalments and default is made in the payment of any one instalment, proceedings may be taken as if the default had been made in the payment of all the instalments then unpaid.

6 The family court has power to vary, suspend, rescind or revive any order made by it, including—

a power to rescind an order and re-list the application on which it was made,

b power to replace an order which for any reason appears to be invalid by another which the court has power to make, and

c power to vary an order with effect from when it was originally made.

7 Subject to rules of court, the family court may proceed in the absence of one, some or all of the parties.

8 The family court has the same power to enforce an undertaking given by a solicitor in relation to any proceedings in that court as the High Court has to enforce an undertaking given by a solicitor in relation to any proceedings in the High Court.

9 In any case not expressly provided for by or in pursuance of this or any other Act, the general principles of practice in the High Court may be adopted and applied to proceedings in the family court.

31G Witnesses and evidence

1 Subsection (2) applies where the family court is satisfied that a person in England and Wales is likely to be able to give material evidence, or produce any document or thing likely to be material evidence, in proceedings in the court.

b requiring the person to attend before the court, at the time and place specified in the summons, to produce the document or thing, or

c a person attending before the court, whether or not in answer to a summons under subsection (2), refuses to be sworn or give evidence.

a commit the person to custody until the expiry of a period not exceeding one month specified by the court or until the person sooner gives evidence or produces the document or thing, or

b impose on the person a fine not exceeding £2,500, or

c both.

5 A fine imposed under subsection (4) is deemed, for the purposes of any enactment, to be a sum adjudged to be paid by a conviction of a magistrates' court.

6 Where in any proceedings in the family court it appears to the court that any party to the proceedings who is not legally represented is unable to examine or cross-examine a witness effectively, the court is to—

a ascertain from that party the matters about which the witness may be able to depose or on which the witness ought to be cross-examined, and

b put, or cause to be put, to the witness such questions in the interests of that party as may appear to the court to be proper.

7 Subject to the provisions of any Act or instrument made under an Act or rule of law authorising the reception of unsworn evidence, evidence given before the family court is to be given on oath.

a a judge of the court, or

b an officer of the court appointed by a judge of the court for the purpose,

as well as before a commissioner for oaths or any other person authorised to take affidavits under the Commissioners for Oaths Acts 1889 and 1891.

9 An affidavit sworn before any such judge or officer may be sworn without the payment of any fee.

31H Contempt of court: power to limit court's powers

1 The Lord Chancellor may by regulations made after consulting the Lord Chief Justice make provision limiting or removing, in circumstances specified in the regulations, any of the powers exercisable by the family court when dealing with a person for contempt of court.

2 The Lord Chief Justice may nominate a judicial office holder (as defined in section 109(4) of the Constitutional Reform Act 2005) to exercise functions of the Lord Chief Justice under this section.

31I Powers of the High Court in respect of family court proceedings

1 If the High Court, at any stage in proceedings in the family court, thinks it desirable that the proceedings, or any part of them, should be transferred to the High Court, it may order the transfer to the High Court of the proceedings or part.

2 The power given by subsection (1) is without prejudice to section 29 of the Senior Courts Act 1981, and is to be exercised—

a in accordance with any directions given as to the distribution or transfer of proceedings, and

b subject to any provision made under section 1 of the Courts and Legal Services Act 1990 or made by or under any other enactment.

d section 39 of that Act (power to order documents to be executed or indorsed by nominated person);

e section 70(1) and (2) of that Act (assessors);

f section 57 of the County Courts Act 1984 (evidence of prisoners);

31K Appeals

1 Subject to any order made under section 56(1) of the Access to Justice Act 1999 (power to provide for appeals to be made instead to the High Court or county court, or to the family court itself), if any party to any proceedings in the family court is dissatisfied with the decision of the court, that party may appeal from it to the Court of Appeal in such manner and subject to such conditions as may be provided by Family Procedure Rules.

2 Subsection (1) does not—

a confer any right of appeal from any decision where a right of appeal is conferred by some other enactment, or

b take away any right of appeal from any decision where a right of appeal is so conferred,

and has effect subject to any enactment other than this Part; and in this subsection “enactment” means an enactment whenever passed.

3 The Lord Chancellor may, after consulting the Lord Chief Justice, by order make provision as to the circumstances in which appeals may be made against decisions taken by courts or judges on questions arising in connection with the transfer, or proposed transfer, of proceedings from or to the family court.

4 Except to the extent provided for in any order made under subsection (3), no appeal may be made against any decision of a kind mentioned in that subsection.

5 At the hearing of any proceedings in the family court in which there is a right of appeal or from which an appeal may be brought with permission, the judge, if requested to do so by any party, is to make a note—

a of any question of law raised at the hearing,

b of the facts in evidence in relation to any such question, and

c of the court's decision on any such question and of the court's determination of the proceedings.

6 Where such a note is made, and whether or not an appeal has been made, the court—

a on the application of any party to the proceedings, and

b on payment of the fee (if any) prescribed under section 92 of the Courts Act 2003,

is to provide that party with a copy of the note signed by the judge, and the copy so signed is to be used at the hearing of any appeal.

7 Section 81 of the County Courts Act 1984 (powers of Court of Appeal on appeal from county court) applies to appeals from the family court to the Court of Appeal as it applies to appeals from the county court to the Court of Appeal.

8 The Lord Chief Justice may nominate a judicial office holder (as defined in section 109(4) of the Constitutional Reform Act 2005) to exercise functions of the Lord Chief Justice under subsection (3).

31L Enforcement

1 Payment of a fine or penalty imposed by the family court may be enforced upon the order of the court in like manner as a judgment of the court for the payment of money.

2 Rules of court may, in relation to cases where under two or more orders made by or registered in the family court the same person is required to make periodical payments to the same recipient, make provision—

a for recovery of payments under more than one of the orders to be dealt with in the same proceedings;

b for apportioning, between some or all of the orders, payments made by the person required to make payments under the orders.

3 Subsection (4) applies where—

a periodical payments are required to be made, or a lump sum is required to be paid, to a child under an order made by the family court, or

b periodical payments are required to be made to a child under an order registered in the family court.

4 Any sum required under the order to be paid to the child may be paid to the person who looks after the child, and that person may proceed in that person's own name for—

a the variation, revival or revocation of the order, or

b the recovery of any sum required to be paid under the order.

5 Where a child has a right under any Act or instrument made under an Act to apply for the revival of an order made by the family court which provided for the making of periodical payments to or for the benefit of the child, the person who looks after the child may proceed in the person's own name for the revival of the order.

6 Where any person by whom periodical payments are required to be paid to a child under an order made by or registered in the family court applies for the variation or revocation of the order, the person who looks after the child may answer the application in the person's own name.

7 Nothing in subsections (4) and (5) affects any right of a child to proceed in the child's own name for the variation, revival or revocation of an order or for the recovery of a sum payable under an order.

8 In this section—

a a reference to the person who looks after a child is—

i in the case of a child who is being looked after by a local authority (within the meaning of section 22 of the Children Act 1989), a reference to that local authority, and

SCHEDULE 17 ¶

Deferred prosecution agreements

Section 45

Part 1 General¶

Characteristics of a deferred prosecution agreement¶

^I5641

1 A deferred prosecution agreement (a “DPA”) is an agreement between a designated prosecutor and a person (“P”) whom the prosecutor is considering prosecuting for an offence specified in Part 2 (the “alleged offence”).

2 Under a DPA—

a P agrees to comply with the requirements imposed on P by the agreement;

b the prosecutor agrees that, upon approval of the DPA by the court (see paragraph 8), paragraph 2 is to apply in relation to the prosecution of P for the alleged offence.

Effect of DPA on court proceedings¶

^I5652

1 Proceedings in respect of the alleged offence are to be instituted by the prosecutor in the Crown Court by preferring a bill of indictment charging P with the alleged offence (see section 2(2)(ba) of the Administration of Justice (Miscellaneous Provisions) Act 1933 (bill of indictment preferred with consent of Crown Court judge following DPA approval)).

2 As soon as proceedings are instituted under sub-paragraph (1) they are automatically suspended.

3 The suspension may only be lifted on an application to the Crown Court by the prosecutor; and no such application may be made at any time when the DPA is in force.

4 At a time when proceedings are suspended under sub-paragraph (2), no other person may prosecute P for the alleged offence.

Designated prosecutors¶

^I5663

1 The following are designated prosecutors—

a the Director of Public Prosecutions;

b the Director of the Serious Fraud Office;

c any prosecutor designated under this paragraph by an order made by the Secretary of State.

2 A designated prosecutor must exercise personally the power to enter into a DPA and, accordingly, any enactment that enables a function of a designated prosecutor to be exercised by a person other than the prosecutor concerned does not apply.

3 But if the designated prosecutor is unavailable, the power to enter into a DPA may be exercised personally by a person authorised in writing by the designated prosecutor.

Persons who may enter into a DPA with a prosecutor¶

^I5674

1 P may be a body corporate, a partnership or an unincorporated association, but may not be an individual.

2 In the case of a DPA between a prosecutor and a partnership—

a the DPA must be entered into in the name of the partnership (and not in that of any of the partners);

b any money payable under the DPA must be paid out of the funds of the partnership.

3 In the case of a DPA between a prosecutor and an unincorporated association—

a the DPA must be entered into in the name of the association (and not in that of any of its members);

b any money payable under the DPA must be paid out of the funds of the association.

Content of a DPA¶

^I5685

1 A DPA must contain a statement of facts relating to the alleged offence, which may include admissions made by P.

2 A DPA must specify an expiry date, which is the date on which the DPA ceases to have effect if it has not already been terminated under paragraph 9 (breach).

3 The requirements that a DPA may impose on P include, but are not limited to, the following requirements—

a to pay to the prosecutor a financial penalty;

b to compensate victims of the alleged offence;

c to donate money to a charity or other third party;

d to disgorge any profits made by P from the alleged offence;

e to implement a compliance programme or make changes to an existing compliance programme relating to P's policies or to the training of P's employees or both;

f to co-operate in any investigation related to the alleged offence;

g to pay any reasonable costs of the prosecutor in relation to the alleged offence or the DPA.

The DPA may impose time limits within which P must comply with the requirements imposed on P.

4 The amount of any financial penalty agreed between the prosecutor and P must be broadly comparable to the fine that a court would have imposed on P on conviction for the alleged offence following a guilty plea.

5 A DPA may include a term setting out the consequences of a failure by P to comply with any of its terms.

Code on DPAs¶

^I5696

1 The Director of Public Prosecutions and the Director of the Serious Fraud Office must jointly issue a Code for prosecutors giving guidance on—

a the general principles to be applied in determining whether a DPA is likely to be appropriate in a given case, and

b the disclosure of information by a prosecutor to P in the course of negotiations for a DPA and after a DPA has been agreed.

2 The Code may also give guidance on any other relevant matter, including—

a the use of information obtained by a prosecutor in the course of negotiations for a DPA;

b variation of a DPA;

c termination of a DPA and steps that may be taken by a prosecutor following termination;

d steps that may be taken by a prosecutor when the prosecutor suspects a breach of a DPA.

3 The Code must be set out in the report made by the Director of Public Prosecutions to the Attorney General under section 9 of the Prosecution of Offences Act 1985 for the year in which the Code is issued.

2 The court must give reasons for its decision on whether or not to make a declaration under sub-paragraph (1).

3 The prosecutor may make a further application to the court for a declaration under sub-paragraph (1) if, following the previous application, the court declined to make a declaration.

4 A hearing at which an application under this paragraph is determined must be held in private, any declaration under sub-paragraph (1) must be made in private, and reasons under sub-paragraph (2) must be given in private.

Court approval of DPA: final hearing¶

^I5718

1 When a prosecutor and P have agreed the terms of a DPA, the prosecutor must apply to the Crown Court for a declaration that—

a the DPA is in the interests of justice, and

b the terms of the DPA are fair, reasonable and proportionate.

2 But the prosecutor may not make an application under sub-paragraph (1) unless the court has made a declaration under paragraph 7(1) (declaration on preliminary hearing).

3 A DPA only comes into force when it is approved by the Crown Court making a declaration under sub-paragraph (1).

4 The court must give reasons for its decision on whether or not to make a declaration under sub-paragraph (1).

5 A hearing at which an application under this paragraph is determined may be held in private.

6 But if the court decides to approve the DPA and make a declaration under sub-paragraph (1) it must do so, and give its reasons, in open court.

7 Upon approval of the DPA by the court, the prosecutor must publish—

a the DPA,

b the declaration of the court under paragraph 7 and the reasons for its decision to make the declaration,

c in a case where the court initially declined to make a declaration under paragraph 7, the court's reason for that decision, and

unless the prosecutor is prevented from doing so by an enactment or by an order of the court under paragraph 12 (postponement of publication to avoid prejudicing proceedings).

Breach of DPA¶

^I5729

1 At any time when a DPA is in force, if the prosecutor believes that P has failed to comply with the terms of the DPA, the prosecutor may make an application to the Crown Court under this paragraph.

2 On an application under sub-paragraph (1) the court must decide whether, on the balance of probabilities, P has failed to comply with the terms of the DPA.

3 If the court finds that P has failed to comply with the terms of the DPA, it may—

a invite the prosecutor and P to agree proposals to remedy P's failure to comply, or

b terminate the DPA.

4 The court must give reasons for its decisions under sub-paragraphs (2) and (3).

5 Where the court decides that P has not failed to comply with the terms of the DPA, the prosecutor must publish the court's decision and its reasons for that decision, unless the prosecutor is prevented from doing so by an enactment or by an order of the court under paragraph 12 (postponement of publication to avoid prejudicing proceedings).

6 Where the court invites the prosecutor and P to agree proposals to remedy P's failure to comply, the prosecutor must publish the court's decisions under sub-paragraphs (2) and (3) and the reasons for those decisions, unless the prosecutor is prevented from doing so by an enactment or by an order of the court under paragraph 12 (postponement of publication to avoid prejudicing proceedings).

7 Where the court terminates a DPA under sub-paragraph (3)(b), the prosecutor must publish—

a the fact that the DPA has been terminated by the court following a failure by P to comply with the terms of the DPA, and

b the court's reasons for its decisions under sub-paragraphs (2) and (3),

unless the prosecutor is prevented from doing so by an enactment or by an order of the court under paragraph 12 (postponement of publication to avoid prejudicing proceedings).

b the reasons for the prosecutor's decision not to make an application to the court,

unless the prosecutor is prevented from doing so by an enactment or by an order of the court under paragraph 12 (postponement of publication to avoid prejudicing proceedings).

Variation of DPA¶

^I57310

1 At any time when a DPA is in force, the prosecutor and P may agree to vary its terms if—

a the court has invited the parties to vary the DPA under paragraph 9(3)(a), or

b variation of the DPA is necessary to avoid a failure by P to comply with its terms in circumstances that were not, and could not have been, foreseen by the prosecutor or P at the time that the DPA was agreed.

2 When the prosecutor and P have agreed to vary the terms of a DPA, the prosecutor must apply to the Crown Court for a declaration that—

a the variation is in the interests of justice, and

b the terms of the DPA as varied are fair, reasonable and proportionate.

3 A variation of a DPA only takes effect when it is approved by the Crown Court making a declaration under sub-paragraph (2).

4 The court must give reasons for its decision on whether or not to make a declaration under sub-paragraph (2).

5 A hearing at which an application under this paragraph is determined may be held in private.

6 But if the court decides to approve the variation and make a declaration under sub-paragraph (2) it must do so, and give its reasons, in open court.

7 Where the court decides not to approve the variation, the prosecutor must publish the court's decision and the reasons for it, unless the prosecutor is prevented from doing so by an enactment or by an order of the court under paragraph 12 (postponement of publication to avoid prejudicing proceedings).

8 Where the court decides to approve the variation the prosecutor must publish—

a the DPA as varied, and

b the court's declaration under this paragraph and the reasons for its decision to make the declaration,

unless the prosecutor is prevented from doing so by an enactment or by an order of the court under paragraph 12 (postponement of publication to avoid prejudicing proceedings).

Discontinuance of proceedings on expiry of DPA¶

^I57411

1 If a DPA remains in force until its expiry date, then after the expiry of the DPA the proceedings instituted under paragraph 2(1) are to be discontinued by the prosecutor giving notice to the Crown Court that the prosecutor does not want the proceedings to continue.

2 Where proceedings are discontinued under sub-paragraph (1), fresh criminal proceedings may not be instituted against P for the alleged offence.

3 But sub-paragraph (2) does not prevent fresh proceedings from being instituted against P in a case where, after a DPA has expired, the prosecutor finds that, during the course of the negotiations for the DPA—

a P provided inaccurate, misleading or incomplete information to the prosecutor, and

b P knew or ought to have known that the information was inaccurate, misleading or incomplete.

4 A DPA is not to be treated as having expired for the purposes of sub-paragraph (1) if, on the expiry date specified in the DPA—

a an application made by the prosecutor under paragraph 9 (breach) has not yet been decided by the court,

b following an application under paragraph 9 the court has invited the parties to agree proposals to remedy P's failure to comply, but the parties have not yet reached an agreement, or

c the parties have agreed proposals to remedy P's failure to comply following an invitation of the court under paragraph 9(3)(a) but P has not yet complied with the agreement.

5 In the case mentioned in sub-paragraph (4)(a)—

a if the court decides that P has not failed to comply with the terms of the DPA, or that P has failed to comply but does not take action under paragraph 9(3), the DPA is to be treated as expiring when the application is decided;

b if the court terminates the DPA, the DPA is to be treated as not having remained in force until its expiry date (and sub-paragraph (1) therefore does not apply);

c if the court invites the parties to agree proposals to remedy P's failure to comply, the DPA is to be treated as expiring when the parties have reached such an agreement and P has complied with it.

6 In the case mentioned in sub-paragraph (4)(b), the DPA is to be treated as expiring when the parties have reached an agreement and P has complied with it.

7 In the case mentioned in sub-paragraph (4)(c), the DPA is to be treated as expiring when P complies with the agreement.

8 Where proceedings are discontinued under sub-paragraph (1), the prosecutor must publish—

a the fact that the proceedings have been discontinued, and

b details of P's compliance with the DPA,

unless the prosecutor is prevented from doing so by an enactment or by an order of the court under paragraph 12 (postponement of publication to avoid prejudicing proceedings).

Court order postponing publication of information by prosecutor¶

^I57512The court may order that the publication of information by the prosecutor under paragraph 8(7), 9(5), (6), (7) or (8), 10(7) or (8) or 11(8) be postponed for such period as the court considers necessary if it appears to the court that postponement is necessary for avoiding a substantial risk of prejudice to the administration of justice in any legal proceedings.

Use of material in criminal proceedings¶

^I57613

1 Sub-paragraph (2) applies where a DPA between a prosecutor and P has been approved by the Crown Court under paragraph 8.

2 The statement of facts contained in the DPA is, in any criminal proceedings brought against P for the alleged offence, to be treated as an admission by P under section 10 of the Criminal Justice Act 1967 (proof by formal admission).

3 Sub-paragraph (4) applies where a prosecutor and P have entered into negotiations for a DPA but the DPA has not been approved by the Crown Court under paragraph 8.

4 Material described in sub-paragraph (6) may only be used in evidence against P—

a on a prosecution for an offence consisting of the provision of inaccurate, misleading or incomplete information, or

b on a prosecution for some other offence where in giving evidence P makes a statement inconsistent with the material.

5 However, material may not be used against P by virtue of sub-paragraph (4)(b) unless evidence relating to it is adduced, or a question relating to it is asked, by or on behalf of P in the proceedings arising out of the prosecution.

6 The material is—

a material that shows that P entered into negotiations for a DPA, including in particular—

i any draft of the DPA;

ii any draft of a statement of facts intended to be included within the DPA;

iii any statement indicating that P entered into such negotiations;

b material that was created solely for the purpose of preparing the DPA or statement of facts.

;

b after subsection (1) insert—

19B Forum

1 The extradition of a person (“D”) to a category 1 territory is barred by reason of forum if the extradition would not be in the interests of justice.

2 For the purposes of this section, the extradition would not be in the interests of justice if the judge—

a decides that a substantial measure of D's relevant activity was performed in the United Kingdom; and

b decides, having regard to the specified matters relating to the interests of justice (and only those matters), that the extradition should not take place.

3 These are the specified matters relating to the interests of justice—

a the place where most of the loss or harm resulting from the extradition offence occurred or was intended to occur;

b the interests of any victims of the extradition offence;

c any belief of a prosecutor that the United Kingdom, or a particular part of the United Kingdom, is not the most appropriate jurisdiction in which to prosecute D in respect of the conduct constituting the extradition offence;

d were D to be prosecuted in a part of the United Kingdom for an offence that corresponds to the extradition offence, whether evidence necessary to prove the offence is or could be made available in the United Kingdom;

e any delay that might result from proceeding in one jurisdiction rather than another;

f the desirability and practicability of all prosecutions relating to the extradition offence taking place in one jurisdiction, having regard (in particular) to—

i the jurisdictions in which witnesses, co-defendants and other suspects are located, and

ii the practicability of the evidence of such persons being given in the United Kingdom or in jurisdictions outside the United Kingdom;

g D's connections with the United Kingdom.

4 In deciding whether the extradition would not be in the interests of justice, the judge must have regard to the desirability of not requiring the disclosure of material which is subject to restrictions on disclosure in the category 1 territory concerned.

5 If, on an application by a prosecutor, it appears to the judge that the prosecutor has considered the offences for which D could be prosecuted in the United Kingdom, or a part of the United Kingdom, in respect of the conduct constituting the extradition offence, the judge must make that prosecutor a party to the proceedings on the question of whether D's extradition is barred by reason of forum.

6 In this section “D's relevant activity” means activity which is material to the commission of the extradition offence and which is alleged to have been performed by D.

19C Effect of prosecutor's certificates on forum proceedings

1 The judge hearing proceedings under section 19B (the “forum proceedings”) must decide that the extradition is not barred by reason of forum if (at a time when the judge has not yet decided the proceedings) the judge receives a prosecutor's certificate relating to the extradition.

2 That duty to decide the forum proceedings in that way is subject to the determination of any question relating to the prosecutor's certificate raised in accordance with section 19E.

3 A designated prosecutor may apply for the forum proceedings to be adjourned for the purpose of assisting that or any other designated prosecutor—

a in considering whether to give a prosecutor's certificate relating to the extradition,

b in giving such a certificate, or

c in sending such a certificate to the judge.

4 If such an application is made, the judge must—

a adjourn the forum proceedings until the application is decided; and

b continue the adjournment, for such period as appears to the judge to be reasonable, if the application is granted.

5 But the judge must end the adjournment if the application is not granted.

19D Prosecutor's certificates

1 A “prosecutor's certificate” is a certificate given by a designated prosecutor which—

a certifies both matter A and matter B, and

b certifies either matter C or matter D.

2 Matter A is that a responsible prosecutor has considered the offences for which D could be prosecuted in the United Kingdom, or a part of the United Kingdom, in respect of the conduct constituting the extradition offence.

3 Matter B is that the responsible prosecutor has decided that there are one or more such offences that correspond to the extradition offence (the “corresponding offences”).

4 Matter C is that—

a the responsible prosecutor has made a formal decision as to the prosecution of D for the corresponding offences,

b that decision is that D should not be prosecuted for the corresponding offences, and

c the reason for that decision is a belief that—

i there would be insufficient admissible evidence for the prosecution; or

ii the prosecution would not be in the public interest.

5 Matter D is that the responsible prosecutor believes that D should not be prosecuted for the corresponding offences because there are concerns about the disclosure of sensitive material in—

a the prosecution of D for the corresponding offences, or

b any other proceedings.

6 In relation to the extradition of any person to a category 1 territory, neither this section nor any other rule of law (whether or not contained in an enactment) may require a designated prosecutor—

a to consider any matter relevant to giving a prosecutor's certificate; or

b to consider whether to give a prosecutor's certificate.

7 In this section “sensitive material” means material which appears to the responsible prosecutor to be sensitive, including material appearing to be sensitive on grounds relating to—

a national security,

b international relations, or

c the prevention or detection of crime (including grounds relating to the identification or activities of witnesses, informants or any other persons supplying information to the police or any other law enforcement agency who may be in danger if their identities are revealed).

19E Questioning of prosecutor's certificate

1 No decision of a designated prosecutor relating to a prosecutor's certificate in respect of D's extradition (a “relevant certification decision”) may be questioned except on an appeal under section 26 against an order for that extradition.

2 In England and Wales, and Northern Ireland, for the purpose of—

a determining whether to give permission for a relevant certification decision to be questioned, and

b determining any such question (if that permission is given),

the High Court must apply the procedures and principles which would be applied by it on an application for judicial review.

3 In Scotland, for the purpose of determining any questioning of a relevant certification decision, the High Court must apply the procedures and principles that would be applied by it on an application for judicial review.

4 In a case where the High Court quashes a prosecutor's certificate, the High Court is to decide the question of whether or not the extradition is barred by reason of forum.

5 Where the High Court is required to decide that question by virtue of subsection (4)—

a sections 19B to 19D and this section apply in relation to that decision (with the appropriate modifications) as they apply to a decision by a judge; and

b in particular—

i a reference in this section to an appeal under section 26 has effect as a reference to an appeal under section 32 to the Supreme Court;

2 For that purpose—

“existing extradition bar questions” means—
1. the questions in section 11(1) of the Extradition Act 2003 (in the case of a Part 1 warrant), or

as those questions stand before their amendment by this Part of this Schedule;
“Part 1 warrant” and “request for a person's extradition” have the same meanings as in the Extradition Act 2003.

^I536^I12458The powers conferred by section 177, 178 and 222 of the Extradition Act 2003 are exercisable in relation to any amendment of that Act made by this Part of this Schedule.

7 Where notice of an appeal is given in accordance with subsections (5) and (6), the High Court is to consider the appeal only if it appears to the High Court that—

a the appeal is necessary to avoid real injustice, and

b the circumstances are exceptional and make it appropriate to consider the appeal.

the High Court must remand the person in custody or on bail while the Supreme Court appeal is pending.

5 The Supreme Court appeal ceases to be pending at the earliest of these times—

a the end of the period of 28 days starting with the day when the High Court appeal is dismissed (unless, within that period, an application is made to the High Court for permission to make the Supreme Court appeal);

b the end of the period of 28 days starting with the day when the High Court refuses permission to make the Supreme Court appeal (unless, within that period, an application is made to the Supreme Court for permission to make the Supreme Court appeal);

c the end of the period of 28 days starting with the day on which permission is given to bring the Supreme Court appeal (unless the appeal is brought within that period);

d the time when the proceedings on the Supreme Court appeal are abandoned;

e the time when there is no further step that can be taken in relation to the Supreme Court appeal by the issuing authority (ignoring any power of a court to grant leave to take a step out of time).

Section 58

Prior consultation¶

1If the Secretary of State is proposing to make an order under section 2, the Secretary of State must consult those persons whom the Secretary of State considers would be affected by the proposed order.

Draft order¶

1 If, after such a consultation, the Secretary of State considers it appropriate to proceed with the making of the order, the Secretary of State must lay before Parliament—

a a draft order, and

b a document which explains the order.

2 The Secretary of State may not act under this paragraph before the end of the period of twelve weeks beginning with the day on which the consultation began.

Draft order approved¶

1 The Secretary of State may make an order in the terms of the draft order laid under paragraph 2 if, after the expiry of the 40-day period, the draft order is approved by a resolution of each House of Parliament.

2 But the procedure in paragraph 4 is to apply to the draft order instead of the procedure in this paragraph if—

a either House of Parliament so resolves within the 30-day period, or

b a committee of either House charged with reporting on the draft order so recommends within the 30-day period and the House to which the recommendation is made does not by resolution reject the recommendation within that period.

Scrutiny extended¶

1 The Secretary of State must have regard to—

a any representations,

b any resolution of either House of Parliament, and

c any recommendations of a committee of either House of Parliament charged with reporting on the draft order,

2 If after the expiry of the 60-day period the draft order is approved by a resolution of each House of Parliament, the Secretary of State may make an order in the terms of the draft order.

3 If after the expiry of the 60-day period the Secretary of State wishes to proceed with the draft order but with material changes, the Secretary of State may lay before Parliament—

a a revised draft order, and

b a statement giving a summary of the changes proposed.

4 If the revised draft order is approved by a resolution of each House of Parliament, the Secretary of State may make an order in the terms of the revised draft order.

Interpretation¶

1 For the purposes of this paragraph an order is made in the terms of a draft order or revised draft order if it contains no material changes to its provisions.

2 In this Schedule, references to the “30-day”, “40-day” and “60-day” periods in relation to any draft order are to the periods of 30, 40 and 60 days beginning with the day on which the draft order was laid before Parliament.
