These Rules amend the Polygraph Rules 2009 (S.I. 2009/619) to reflect changes to the conduct of polygraph testing of offenders on licence. Since the conclusion of the 2009 pilot for sex offenders, polygraph testing has been fully implemented for sex offenders, and now applies to a wider cohort of offenders via the extension of section 28 of the Offender Management Act 2007 (c. 21)(“the 2007 Act”) to terrorist offenders by section 32 of the Counter-Terrorism and Sentencing Act 2021 (c. 11), and a pilot for domestic abuse offenders commenced by the Domestic Abuse Act 2021 (Commencement No. 1 and Saving Provisions) Regulations (S.I. 2021/797).
