These regulations revoke the Police (Disposal of Property) Regulations (Northern Ireland) 1974. They substantially re-enact the provisions in those regulations relating to sale and disposal of property in the possession of the police to which the Police (Property) Act 1897 applies, and make corresponding provision for property in the hands of the police by virtue of Article 11 of the Criminal Justice (Northern Ireland) Order 1994. The regulations also make new provision for the retention of property by the police in certain circumstances.
