<p /> <p>Individual policy Impact Assessments have been published where the amendments
added to the Bill during its passage through the House of Lords would either lead
to an impact of £5m per annum or more on the public sector, or are likely to attract
high levels of political or media interest. These include individual Impact Assessments
on provisions on the Recall Adjudicator for recalled determinate sentence prisoners,
provisions which prohibit the offering of inducements or similar rewards as an encouragement
to make a personal injury compensation claim and provisions relating to routes of
Appeal in the Court of Protection</p><p> </p><p>These Impact Assessments are available
here:</p><p><a href="http://services.parliament.uk/bills/2014-15/criminaljusticeandcourts/documents.html"

</p><p>Following the Government’s recent acceptance of the Earl of Listowel’s amendment
at Lords Third Reading in relation to the duties of custody officers after charges
for arrested juveniles, an Impact Assessment will be published on this provision in
due course.</p><p> </p><p>In relation to all other Government amendments made during
the Bill’s passage, including disclosing private sexual photographs and films with
intent to cause distress and youth reporting restrictions, our analysis is that the
impact of these provisions does not meet threshold to require a full Impact Assessment.</p><p>
</p><p>The Government’s overarching Impact Assessment for the Bill as a whole will
be updated once the Bill achieves Royal Assent.</p>
