100: Offenders subject to non-association orders

You could also call this:

"Rules for offenders who are not allowed to hang out with certain people"

If you are an offender with a non-association order, this section applies to you. You must not associate with certain people or groups of people as ordered by the court under section 77B of the Criminal Justice Act 1985. This order is in addition to any other conditions you must follow when you are released.

When you are released, you have to follow the non-association order, just like you would follow any other release conditions. The court made this order, but you have to follow it as if the Board made it. You have to do what the order says, and you also have to follow any other conditions the Board gives you.

You or your probation officer can ask the Board to change or cancel the non-association order. The Board will consider your request, just like they would if you were asking to change a special condition of your release.

Transitional arrangements for offenders subject to pre-cd sentences: General rules

100Offenders subject to non-association orders

This section applies to an offender who is subject to a pre-cd sentence and to an order made under section 77B of the Criminal Justice Act 1985 that the offender must not associate with any specified person or with persons of any specified class (a non-association order).
When an offender to whom this section applies is released under this Part, he or she is subject to the non-association order imposed by the court in addition to the conditions imposed by the Board as if, for all purposes, the order were a release condition imposed by the Board.
The offender or a probation officer may apply to the Board for the variation or discharge of a non-association order as if the order were a special condition imposed under this Part.
