 The Youth Criminal Justice Act
However, had this provision in the YCJA been inspired by a real concern for rehabilitation, the act would not have replicated the automatism of adult criminal justice; it would not have provided for the automatic release of youths in the community after two-thirds of their sentence, irrespective of whether they are ready or not.
However, the price to pay for bringing youth justice closer to an adult criminal justice model is that practices that exist in the adult system will be imported into the youth system,no matter how counterproductive they may be in a system that should be adapted to what young people are.
Henceforth, youth justice was presumed inadequate to deal with cases of very serious offences committed at the ages of 16 and 17.

 Implications of the CJA for Travellers, Ravers, Squatters, and Environmental Protesters
The 1994 Act exempts residential occupiers, or people acting on their behalf, from legal provisions penalising the use of violence to secure immediate entry into premises when someone on the premises is opposed to their entry.
The Criminal Justice and Public Order Act 1994 has 171 Sections, almost all of which have provoked considerable opposition from Civil Liberties groups, professionals in the legal and penal fields and groups of people who are directly targeted by the Act.
The Act also enables local authorities to direct people camping in caravans or other vehicles on unoccupied land, or on occupied land without the owner's consent, to leave the land and remove their vehicles from it: those concerned need not be trespassers nor have behaved in any particular way.
