Details
Local authorities apply to a magistrate for a Part 2A order when they need additional powers to manage a person or item that may cause significant harm to human health from infection or contamination. This is as a last resort when other interventions have either failed or aren’t suitable.
A magistrate can grant a Part 2A order to a local authority if the various conditions set out in the 2010 Health Protection Regulations are met.
More information about Part 2A orders is available from our governance page.
