    1.    This Order may be cited as the Criminal Justice Act 1993 (Commencement No. 7) Order 1994.

This Order brings into force on 22nd August 1994 section 72 of the Criminal Justice Act 1993. Section 72 amends the Backing of Warrants (Republic of Ireland) Act 1965 so as to allow provision to be made, by order, for a statutory speciality rule to be introduced into the backing of warrants arrangements with the Republic of Ireland. The Backing of Warrants (Republic of Ireland) (Rule of Speciality) Order 1994 (S.I. 1994/1952), which comes into force on 22nd August 1994, introduces such a rule into those arrangements.

This Order has been preceded by the Criminal Justice Act 1993 (Commencement No. 1) Order 1993 (S.I. 1993/1968), the Criminal Justice Act 1993 (Commencement No. 2) (Transitional Provisions and Savings) (Scotland) Order 1993 (S.I. 1993/2035), the Criminal Justice Act 1993 (Commencement No. 3) Order 1993 (S.I. 1993/2734), the Criminal Justice Act 1993 (Commencement No. 4) Order 1994 (S.I. 1994/71), the Criminal Justice Act 1993 (Commencement No. 5) Order 1994 (S.I. 1994/242) and the Criminal Justice Act 1993 (Commencement No. 6) Order 1994 (S.I. 1994/700). The first of these Orders brought into force on two different dates, certain provisions of that Act for England and Wales.
