Under the Armed Forces Act 2006 certain persons may, for the purposes of the Act, be "civilians subject to service discipline".
Whether a person is a civilian subject to service discipline depends in some cases partly on whether he is a member or employee of a specified organisation.
Article 2 and Schedule 1 provide for the specification of the military organisation (the North Atlantic Treaty Organisation) certain of whose members or employees are civilians subject to service discipline when outside the British Islands.
Article 3 and Schedule 2 provide for the specification of those other organisations whose employees are civilians subject to service discipline when in a designated area.
Some categories of person are civilians subject to service discipline if they are in a designated area. Article 4 and Schedule 3 provide for the designation of areas for the different categories.
