PROCEEDS OF CRIME
This Order makes amendments to the Proceeds of Crime Act 2003 (Investigations in different parts of the United Kingdom) Order 2003 (S.I. 2003/425) (“the 2003 Order”) which are consequential on the commencement of section 66 of the Policing and Crime Act 2009 (c. 26) (“PCA 2009”) in Northern Ireland on 1st March 2016. That provision transfers the jurisdiction for making production orders and issuing search and seizure warrants in relation to detained cash investigations in England, Wales and Northern Ireland from a judge of the High Court to a judge entitled to exercise the jurisdiction of the Crown Court. Orders made and warrants issued by a judge entitled to exercise the jurisdiction of the Crown Court cannot be enforced by way of section 18 of the Civil Jurisdiction and Judgments Act 1982 (c. 27) and the 2003 Order is therefore amended to provide for the enforcement of such orders and warrants across the United Kingdom.
