The Criminal Justice Act 2003 (Commencement No. 29 and Saving Provisions) (Amendment) Order 2012
This Order amends the Criminal Justice Act 2003 (Commencement No. 29 and Saving Provisions) Order 2012 (S.I. 2012/2574) (“the No. 29 Order”). It does so by inserting the local justice area of High Peak into a list of local justice areas in the Schedule to the No. 29 Order. Local justice areas are areas in England and Wales in relation to which a magistrates’ court may sit. The No. 29 Order brings into force on 5th November 2012 provisions in Schedule 3 to the Criminal Justice Act 2003 (c. 44) (“the 2003 Act”) in relation to the listed local justice areas. Inserting High Peak into that list means that that area is included among the areas where provisions in Schedule 3 are commenced.
