The Sexual Offences Act will be a significant and far-reaching piece of legislation which codifys and revises the existing legislation relating to sexual activities. A considerable number of new crimes will be introduced or redefined, along with the criminalization of certain types of conduct not previously covered by legislation. This book provides a full, clear analysis of the Act, and covers in detail issues such as rape, child sexual abuse, adults with mental disorders and learning disabilities, sex offenders, and recent developments in the law of evidence. Includes a full copy of the Act.
