A nice example of commencement - the Bribery Act came into force on 1st July 2011, having received the Royal Assent on 8 April 2010. It also happens to be an example of a consolidating piece of legislation, and creates new offences, including bribery of a foreign official. Guidance from the MoJ is available here. There will also be some interesting issues of statutory interpretation arising from the part of the Act referring to “carrying on a business” in relation to corporate offences under the Act.
