EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Regulations)


These Regulations revoke the Remote Monitoring Requirements (Prescribed Courts) (Scotland) Regulations 2005 ("the 2005 Regulations"). Those Regulations prescribed courts, and descriptions of courts, for the purposes of section 24A(1) and (2) of the Criminal Procedure (Scotland) Act 1995 (power to grant bail subject to a remote monitoring requirement).

Regulation 2(1) revokes on 1st January 2008 the 2005 Regulations in respect of all of the courts and descriptions of courts prescribed by regulations 2(1)(a) and 2(2) of the 2005 Regulations (the sheriff courts of Glasgow, Stirling and Kilmarnock, the High Court sitting at Glasgow and the High Court when granting bail following an application under section 112 of the 1995 Act (admission of appellant to bail)).

Regulation 2(2) revokes the remainder of the 2005 Regulations on 15th January 2008. Regulation 3 provides that any remote monitoring requirement in place on the date the relevant regulation is revoked will continue to have effect until it otherwise expires.
