EXPLANATORY NOTE
(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations amend the Schedule to the Sexual Offences Act 2003 (Prescribed Police Stations) (Scotland) Regulations 2004 ("the principal Regulations").
By virtue of section 87(1) of the Sexual Offences Act 2003 relevant offenders must fulfil their notification requirements under that Act by attending any police station in their local police area which is prescribed for this purpose in regulations. The principal Regulations prescribed those police stations. These Regulations amend the principal Regulations by removing Dalgety Bay Police Station, Levenmouth Police Station and St Andrews Police Station from the list of prescribed police stations in the Fife police area. Helensburgh Police Station, Alexandria Police Station and Cambuslang Police Station are also removed from the list of prescribed police stations for the Strathclyde police area, and Kirkintilloch Police Station is added as a prescribed police station for that police area.
