EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Regulations)


These Regulations amend regulation 2(a)(i) of the Criminal Justice and Public Order Act 1994 (Suspension of Custody Officer Certificate) Regulations 1998. These Regulations amend the circumstances in which the escort monitor or person in charge of a secure training centre may suspend a custody officer's certificate insofar as it authorises the performance of escort functions or custodial duties pending a decision of the Secretary of State under paragraph 4 of Schedule 2 to the Criminal Justice and Public Order Act 1994 (revocation of a custody officer certificate).

The amendment is needed to clarify the type of allegation that must be made before a custody officer's certificate may be withdrawn. The allegation must be one of misconduct. The amendment was recommended by the Joint Committee on Statutory Instruments in its 29th Report in 1998.
