Justice and Security (Northern Ireland) Act 2007 (2007 c 6)

This Act was introduced to extend a number of temporary provisions related to non-jury trials in Northern Ireland. It was first enacted to address concerns surrounding intimidation of jurors and the impact on fair trials due to ongoing sectarian violence. The Act allows for specific cases to be tried by a judge alone, under certain conditions, to mitigate the risk of jury tampering. It also addresses security measures and other arrangements necessary to uphold the justice system's integrity in a region affected by historical conflict and paramilitary activities.
