The Criminal Justice (Sentencing) (Licence Conditions) Order 2003
This Order sets out the standard and other conditions that may be imposed when a prisoner is released from prison on licence into the community under sections 250 and 251 of the Criminal Justice Act 2003 (c. 44). Article 2 contains the standard conditions, which apply in the case of all prisoners released on licence, and cover matters such as residence, work and travel requirements. Article 3 sets out other conditions that may be imposed in the case of all prisoners serving a determinate prison sentence of 12 months or more, and for the purpose of public protection only in the case of prisoners serving a sentence of less than 12 months. Examples of this type of condition are a requirement not to approach or contact a particular person, or enter a particular place. Article 4 contains an additional condition, available only in the case of prisoners serving a determinate prison sentence of 12 months or more, requiring the prisoner to participate in a specified activity or set of activities. An example of this would be a condition that the prisoner attended a particular offending behaviour programme.
