SCHEDULE

Schedule to be inserted in the Penalties for Disorderly Behaviour (Form of Penalty Notice) Regulations 2002








EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Regulations)


These Regulations amend the Penalties for Disorderly Behaviour (Form of Penalty) Notice Regulations 2002 (S.I. 2002/1838) to prescribe the form of penalty notice that must be issued by a constable in dealing with a penalty offence committed by a person who was aged under 16 at the time he committed the offence giving rise to the penalty notice. The minimum age at which a penalty notice for disorderly behaviour can be given under Chapter 1 of Part 1 of the Criminal Justice and Police Act 2001 is changed from 16 to 10 by the Penalties for Disorderly Behaviour (Amendment of Minimum Age) Order 2004 (S.I. 2004/3166).
