star this property answer text <p /> <p>The <em>Youth Justice Board for England &amp; Wales (Amendment of Functions) Order 2014</em> will, subject to Parliamentary approval, assist the Youth Justice Board (YJB) in more efficiently and effectively carrying out its statutory function of overseeing the operation of the youth justice system.</p><p> </p><p>Having considered the additional functions which would be given to the YJB through the Order against the criteria in the Cabinet Office’s <em>Guide to Making Legislation</em>, an impact assessment is not required. The Order would not impose additional costs or reduce existing costs on business or civil society organisations, impose new or remove existing information obligations in respect of the public sector, introduce other administrative burdens or unfunded policy costs, involve some kind of redistribution affecting public, private or civil society organisations, and would not involve regulatory change relevant to the Government’s “one-in, one-out” rule in respect of regulatory burdens. The Government therefore does not intend to publish an impact assessment.</p>
