(This note is not part of the Rules)
These Rules amend the Prison Rules 1964 to remove the right of an unconvicted prisoner to be supplied with food at his own expense or that of his friends. They revoke the Prison (Amendment No. 2) Rules 1987, which they reproduce, save that rule 2(d), which was included in the 1987 Rules in error, has been omitted.
1952 c. 52; section 47 was amended by Schedule 4 to the Criminal Justice Act 1961 (c. 39), section 66(5) of the Criminal Justice Act 1967 (c. 80), paragraph 33 of Schedule 8 to the Courts Act 1971 (c. 23) and paragraph 7 of Schedule 14 to the Criminal Justice Act 1982 (c. 48). Section 47 of the 1952 Act was also affected by an amendment to section 52(2) of that Act by section 66(4) of the Criminal Justice Act 1967.
S.I. 1987/2176.
