Companion Guide to Enforcement

This text has become the standard reference book on enforcement for practitioners in the probation service and youth offending teams, and has also proved a valuable aid to defence advocates, court clerks, magistrates and other professionals who need an accessible but comprehensive sourcebook on the subject. This guide uniquely covers the generic provisions governing enforcement via prosecution, identifies the basis for legal proceedings across the range of community orders, explains the framework of enforcement by the Parole Board and the Prison Service, and also details the enforcement of financial penalties. Also outlined: sex offenders' notification to the police; breach of hostel bail conditions; parenting orders.
