The Magistrates’ Courts (Foreign Travel Orders) (Amendment) Rules 2010
These Rules amend the Magistrates’ Courts (Foreign Travel Orders) Rules 2004 (S.I. 2004 No.1051) to substitute new forms into Schedules 2 (Summons on application for a Foreign Travel Order) and 3 (Foreign Travel Order) in consequence of amendments to the Sexual Offences Act 2003 made by the Policing and Crime Act 2009 (“the 2009 Act”). The new forms refer to the requirement under the 2009 Act for a person who is subject to a foreign travel order prohibiting travel to all countries outside the UK to surrender his or her passport(s) to the police station within the time limit specified in the order; and reflect that a foreign travel order may now be imposed for a period of up to 5 years.
