Original Note:
‘Spiking’ is not an offence in and of itself. The relevant offences in OAPA 1861 and SOA 2003 require proof of a separate offence or intention to do something, causing prosecution difficulties. The proposals remove these qualifications = higher convictions. https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2003/42/section/61 https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/Vict/24-25/100/section/22 https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/Vict/24-25/100/section/23 https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/Vict/24-25/100/section/24
