This Order brings into force section 76 of the Legal Aid, Sentencing and Punishment of Offenders Act 2012 (c. 10), for a period of 12 months commencing on 31st July 2014, but only in relation to the South London local justice area. Among other things, section 76 inserts section 212A of the Criminal Justice Act 2003 (c. 44), which gives a court a power to impose an alcohol abstinence and monitoring requirement as part of a community order or suspended sentence order. Article 4(2) provides that any requirement imposed before section 76 ceases to be in force may continue to have effect after that time.
A full regulatory impact assessment has not been produced for this instrument as no impact on the private or voluntary sector is foreseen.

2003 c.44. Section 212A was inserted by section 76 of the Legal Aid, Sentencing and Punishment of Offenders Act 2012.
England and Wales are divided into areas known as local justice areas as required by section 8 of the Courts Act 2003 (c.39). These were established by the Local Justice Areas Order 2005 (S.I. 2005/554) (“the 2005 Order”). This was altered by the Local Justice Areas Order 2011 (S.I. 2011/1168) which created the new local justice area of South London from 1st January 2012 (see Table 1 of article 3). Whilst the 2005 order has been subsequently amended, the amendments are not relevant for the purposes of this Order.
