Part 7: Sentencing and release Chapter 1: Custodial sentences Section 135: Repeal of uncommenced provision for establishment of recall adjudicators
Sections 8 to 10 of, and Schedule 3 to, the Criminal Justice and Courts Act 2015 introduced provisions, that have not been commenced, for the creation of a new body of decision makers called ‘recall adjudicators’. This was with the intention of removing from the Parole Board the responsibility for reviewing the detention of recalled fixed-term prisoners and instead have those cases reviewed by recall adjudicators appointed by the Secretary of State.
	Section 135 repeals those uncommenced provisions.
