Custodial Detention > Section 226/228

The National Standards for Youth Justice Services has guidelines for Section 226/228.

These two sections Criminal Justice Act 2003 may be ordered for certain specified, usually violent or sexual, offences. The legislation was initially enacted to make it mandatory for a court to order one of these public protection sentences for all such specified offences where the court deemed that person to be 'dangerous'.

  • Section 228 - extended sentence for certain violent or sexual offences
  • Section 226 - detention for public protection.
