The Criminal Justice Act 2003 (Alcohol Abstinence and Monitoring Requirement) (Prescription of Arrangement for Monitoring) Order 2014
Section 76 of the Legal Aid, Sentencing and Punishment of Offenders Act 2012 inserts section 212A in the Criminal Justice Act 2003 (c. 44). This provides that an alcohol abstinence and monitoring requirement can be imposed as part of a requirement of a community order or suspended sentence order. However, section 76 cannot be brought into force for the whole of England and Wales unless it has first been piloted. Section 76 is therefore being brought into force for the purposes of a pilot in the South London local justice area for a period of 12 months by the Legal Aid, Sentencing and Punishment of Offenders Act 2012 (Alcohol Abstinence and Monitoring Requirements) Piloting Order 2014 (S.I. 2014/1777).
