The Lord Chancellor, in exercise of the powers conferred on him by section 144 of the Magistrates' Courts Act 1980(1), after consultation with the Rule Committee appointed under that section, hereby makes the following Rules:
1.-(1) These Rules may be cited as the Magistrates' Courts (Attendance Centre) Rules 1992 and shall come into force on 1st October 1992.
(2) In these Rules "relevant order" means an order under section 17 of the Criminal Justice Act 1982(2) ordering a person who has attained the age of 18 to attend at an attendance centre.
2. The forms contained in Schedule 1 or forms to the like effect may be used, with such variation as the circumstances may require, in connection with proceedings in magistrates' courts when a court has made a relevant order.
3.-(1) Where a relevant order has been made in default of payment of a sum of money-
(a)the whole of that sum may be paid to the clerk of the court which made the order ("the clerk"), or
(b)the whole or, subject to paragraph (2), a part of that sum may be paid to the officer in charge of the attendance centre specified in the order ("the officer in charge").
(2) The officer in charge may not accept a part payment that would not secure the reduction by one or more complete hours of the period of attendance specified in the order.
(3) On receiving a payment under paragraph (1) the clerk shall forthwith notify the officer in charge.
(4) The officer in charge shall pay any money received by him under paragraph (1) to the clerk and shall note the receipt of the money in the register maintained at the attendance centre.

|---|---|---|
| The Magistrates' Courts (Attendance Centre) Rules 1958 | S.I. 1958/1991 | The whole Rules |
| The Magistrates' Courts (Attendance Centre) Rules 1962 | S.I. 1962/1591 | The Whole Rules, so far as still having effect |
| The Magistrates' Courts (Attendance Centre) (Amendment) Rules 1983 | S.I. 1983/525 | The whole Rules. |

(This note is not part of the Rules)
These Rules consolidate, with further amendments, the Magistrates' Courts (Atten dance Centre) Rules 1958 as amended by the other instruments mentioned in Schedule 2.
The only amendment of substance is the substitution of the age of 18 for the age of 17 in the definition of "relevant order" (rule 2(1)). This change is a consequence of the Criminal Justice Act 1991 (c. 53), section 68 (persons aged 17 to be treated as young persons for certain purposes).
1980 c. 43; section 144 was extended by section 145 of that Act and by section 18(2)(b) of the Children and Young Persons Act 1969 (c. 54).
1982 c. 48; section 17 was amended by the Criminal Justice Act 1991 (c. 53), s.67(1).
