Explanatory Note
(This note is not part of the Rules)
These Rules amend the Young Offender Institution Rules 2000 by providing for an adjudicator, approved by the Secretary of State, to inquire into charges of serious offences against discipline set out in those Rules. Where the governor determines that a charge is sufficiently serious, he must refer it to the adjudicator, who is to inquire into the offence no later than 28 days after it has been referred. At an inquiry into a charge that has been referred to the adjudicator, the inmate who has been charged is given the opportunity to be legally represented. If the adjudicator finds an inmate guilty, he has the power to impose upon him any punishment which the governor can impose, and can also impose an award of up to 42 additional days to be served in a young offender institution. These Rules also remove from the governor the power to impose any additional days as a punishment on an inmate found guilty by him, and add to his powers in certain other respects.
