369: Admissions

You could also call this:

“This used to be about things people said they did wrong in court, but it's not used anymore.”

This part of the law used to be about admissions in trials and sentences. However, it no longer exists. The government removed this section on 1 August 2007. They did this when they made changes to the Evidence Act 2006. If you want to know more about admissions in trials now, you might need to look at the Evidence Act 2006 instead.
