76: Schedule 7, page 137, line 14, at end insert—

“(2A) The requirement under paragraph 1(2)(c) must not exceed a 14-hour period.”

Member's explanatory statement

This amendment is based on a recommendation of the JCHR. It is designed to ensure that rights under Article 5 of the ECHR are not infringed, and therefore it sets a 14-hour limit on the time that the subject of Prevention and Investigation Measures could be required to remain in their residence.
