These regulations clarify two things under the Court Security Act 2017: which specific tribunals and bodies are treated as “tribunals”, and that people who are legally authorised under other laws may possess controlled substances on court premises. They affect tribunal bodies, regulated boards, legal practitioners, court users and security managers by defining who is subject to court-security rules and by creating a narrow exception to the prohibited-objects prohibition for authorised possession.
