The Sex Offender Register is a comprehensive examination of the origins, history, structure, and legalities of the UK sex offender register. It delves into how political and public opinion have shaped the direction of registration policy over time. The book provides a thorough understanding of the register and its role in public protection, highlighting its evolution as a policy that has grown and developed organically.

Designed as a form of public protection rather than punishment, the register requires offenders to notify the police of their circumstances and accept a degree of offender management from the authorities. The book explores the political, social, and ethical context in which the register emerged, as well as the specific challenges faced by children and young people who are offenders. It also examines the movement of registered offenders across international borders, the mechanisms for removing offenders from the register, and how other countries in the UK manage sex offenders through similar registers.

The book raises important questions about the efficacy of the sex offender register and its contribution to public protection. It examines various aspects of registration, including the management of information and the experiences of those who are registered. It also explores the influence of public opinion on registration policy and the role of the police as custodians of the register and as offender managers.

By providing an authoritative
authoritative starting point for a wide range of professionals and scholars, this book offers valuable insights into the complex dynamics of the sex offender register and its impact on society.
