EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Order)
    Section 84(1) of the Criminal Justice Act 1991 provides that the Secretary of State may enter into a contract with another person for the running by that person of any prison which is established after the commencement of section 84 and is for the confinement of remand prisoners.
    The Criminal Justice Act 1991 (Contracted Out Prisons) Order 1992 (S.I. 1992/1656) amended section 84(1) so as to enable the Secretary of State to enter into such a contract for the running of any prison established after the commencement of section 84. That Order is revoked by this Order, which amends section 84(1) so as to enable the Secretary of State to enter into such a contract for the running of any prison whether established before or after that date.
