Abstract
This paper considers whether recent legislation increasing the surveillance and control of sex offenders constitutes discrimination. Recent provisions, including the Sex Offenders Act 1997, the Crime and Disorder Act 1998 and the Criminal Justice and Court Services Act 2000 are reviewed. The question of whether sex offenders have been unfairly selected for special treatment is considered as well as the issue of whether the provisions are rightly characterised as punitive.
