The Sex Offenders Register is useful shorthand for the information kept by police forces in the United Kingdom on people who have become subject to the requirement to notify them of certain information after being convicted of a sex crime.
The requirement to register was originally imposed by the Sex Offenders Act 1997 . The 1997 Act was amended by the Criminal Justice and Court Services Act 2000 to include the requirement to notify police of any foreign travel arrangements.
The 1997 Act was repealed by the Sexual Offences Act 2003 which completely reimplemented the provisions of the 1997 Act.
