a to provide two specimens of breath for analysis by means of an approved device;
b to provide a specimen of blood or urine for a laboratory test.
3 A requirement under this section may be imposed only at a service police establishment or a medical establishment.
4 For the purposes of this section and section 93F, a person does not provide a specimen of breath for analysis unless the specimen—
a is sufficient to enable the analysis to be carried out; and
b is provided in such a way as to enable the objective of the analysis to be satisfactorily achieved.
5 For the purposes of this section and section 93F, a person provides a specimen of blood if and only if—

b is of sufficient quantity to enable it to be divided into two parts for the purposes of analysis.
7 Where the provision of a specimen may be required under this section, the question of whether it is to be breath, blood or urine, and in the case of blood the question of who is to be asked to take it, is to be decided by the service policeman imposing the requirement.
8 But where a service policeman decides for the purposes of subsection (7) to require the provision of a specimen of blood, there shall be no requirement to provide such a specimen if—
a the registered medical practitioner who is asked to take the specimen is of the opinion that, for medical reasons, it cannot or should not be taken; or

and where by virtue of this subsection there can be no requirement to provide a specimen of blood, the service policeman may require a specimen of urine instead.
9 A service policeman must, on requiring a person to provide a specimen in pursuance of this section, warn the person that a failure to provide it may render the person liable to proceedings for a service offence.
10 A person who, without reasonable excuse, fails to provide a specimen when required to do so in pursuance of this section is guilty of an offence.
11 A person guilty of an offence under this section is liable to any punishment mentioned in the Table in section 164, but any sentence of imprisonment imposed in respect of the offence must not exceed two years.

2 If the specimen with the lower proportion of alcohol contains no more than a prescribed proportion of alcohol, the person who provided it may claim that it should be replaced by such a specimen of blood or urine as may be required under section 93E.
3 If the person then provides such a specimen, neither specimen of breath is to be used.
4 In subsection (2) “prescribed” means prescribed by regulations made by the Defence Council for the purposes of this section; and the regulations may prescribe different proportions of alcohol in relation to different kinds of offence.
5 On a request made at the time a specimen of blood or urine is provided under section 93E, the person who provided the specimen must be given a part of the specimen sufficient for the purposes of analysis.

93G Specimens of blood from persons incapable of consenting

1 A service policeman may request a registered medical practitioner to take a specimen of blood from a person (“the person concerned”), irrespective of whether that person consents, if—

b it appears to the service policeman that the person concerned has been involved in an accident that constitutes or is comprised in the matter that is under investigation or the circumstances of that matter;
c it appears to the service policeman that the person concerned is or may be incapable of giving a valid consent to the taking of a specimen of blood (whether or not consent has purportedly been given); and
d it appears to the service policeman that that person's incapacity is attributable to medical reasons.
2 It is lawful for a registered medical practitioner to whom a request is made under this section, if that practitioner thinks fit—
a to take a specimen of blood from the person concerned irrespective of whether that person consents; and
b to provide the specimen to a service policeman.
3 The specimen must be of sufficient quantity to enable it to be divided into two parts for the purposes of analysis.

b has been required by a service policeman to give permission for a laboratory test of the specimen; and
c has given permission.
5 A service policeman, on requiring a person to give permission for the purposes of this section for a laboratory test of a specimen, must warn the person that a failure to give the permission may render the person liable to proceedings for a service offence.
6 On a request made at the time a person gives permission under this section for a laboratory test of a specimen, that person must be given a part of the specimen sufficient for the purposes of analysis.
7 A person who, without reasonable excuse, fails to give permission for a laboratory test of a specimen taken from the person under this section is guilty of an offence.
8 A person guilty of an offence under this section is liable to any punishment mentioned in the Table in section 164, but any sentence of imprisonment imposed in respect of the offence must not exceed two years.

94A Property subject to deprivation order: modification of section 94

1 This section applies to property to which a deprivation order relates which is in the possession of—
a a commanding officer, or
b a member of a service police force,
by virtue of section 177C(6) (including any such property that was already in the possession of the commanding officer or a member of a service police force when the order was made).
2 Regulations under section 94(1) must ensure that a judicial authority or a commanding officer may make an order by virtue of section 94(2)(a) or (b) (respectively) on an application which—
a relates to property to which this section applies, and
b is made by a person claiming to be the owner of the property,
only if the conditions in subsection (3) are met.
3 Those conditions are that—
a the application is made before the end of the period of 6 months beginning with the day on which the deprivation order is made, and
b the claimant satisfies the judicial authority or the commanding officer (as the case may be)—
i that the claimant did not consent to the offender’s possession of the property, or 
ii if the deprivation order was made by virtue of subsection (3) of section 177C (property used for the purpose of offence etc), that the claimant did not know, and had no reason to suspect, that the property was likely to be used for a purpose mentioned in that subsection.
4 Regulations under section 94(1) may enable a judicial authority or a commanding officer to make any order for disposal of property to which this section applies that the judicial authority or commanding officer (as the case may be) thinks appropriate (but this is subject to subsection (6)).
5 In subsection (4) the reference to disposal includes disposal by way of transferring the property into the ownership of the Secretary of State; but regulations made by virtue of subsection (4) may not provide for the Secretary of State to become the owner of property which is the subject of an order under section 177F (application of proceeds of property subject to deprivation order).
6 Subsection (4) applies only in relation to cases where no application by virtue of section 94(2)(a) or (b) made during the 6 month period mentioned in subsection (3)(a) by a person claiming to be the owner of the property was successful.
7 In this section “judicial authority” means the Court Martial, the Service Civilian Court or a judge advocate.

C904 For the purpose of deciding whether condition A in section 106 is met, the judge advocate must have regard to such of the following considerations as appear to him to be relevant—
a the nature and seriousness of the offence with which the accused is charged (and the probable method of dealing with him for it),
b the character, antecedents, associations and social ties of the accused,
c the accused's behaviour on previous occasions while charged with a service offence and released from service custody or while on bail in criminal proceedings, and

a a person aged under 18 is convicted of an offence by the Court Martial or the Service Civilian Court,
b he is a civilian subject to service discipline, and
c he has a service parent or service guardian,
the court may, and in the circumstances mentioned in subsection (3) must, exercise the powers conferred by this section.
2 The powers conferred by this section are as follows—
a with the consent of the offender's service parent or service guardian, to order that parent or guardian to enter into a recognizance to take proper care of the offender and exercise proper control over him; and
b if the service parent or service guardian refuses consent and the court considers the refusal unreasonable, to order that parent or guardian to pay a fine not exceeding level 3 on the standard scale.
3 The circumstances referred to in subsection (1) as those in which the court must exercise the powers conferred by this section are—
a that the offender is under 16 when convicted; and
b that the court is satisfied, having regard to the circumstances of the case, that the exercise of those powers would be desirable in the interests of preventing the commission by him of further offences.

3 In fixing the amount of a recognizance under that section, the court must take into account (among other things) the means of the parent or guardian so far as they appear or are known to the court, and this applies whether taking those means into account has the effect of increasing or reducing the amount of the recognizance.
4 A recognizance under section 233 may, where the court has passed an overseas community order on the offender, include a provision that the service parent or service guardian ensure that the offender complies with the requirements of that order.
5 A court imposing a fine under section 233(2)(b) may make an order under section 251 (power to allow payment by instalments), and in relation to such a fine section 251(2) to (7) have effect as if any reference to a service compensation order were omitted.

2 For the purposes of any appeal against the order, references in section 16A of the Court Martial Appeals Act 1968 to passing a sentence include making an order.
3 On an appeal against the order the Court Martial Appeal Court may (as an alternative to exercising its powers under section 16A(2) of that Act) quash the order.
4 The Court Martial may vary or revoke an order under section 233 if on the application of the parent or guardian it appears to the court, having regard to any change in the circumstances since the order was made, to be in the interests of justice to do so.

1 Where—
a a recognizance under section 233 has been entered into, and
b the offender commits a service offence during the period of the recognizance,
the Court Martial or the Service Civilian Court may on convicting the offender of that offence (and subject to subsection (2)) declare the recognizance to be forfeited.
2 The court may not make such a declaration where the parent or guardian is neither a person subject to service law nor a civilian subject to service discipline.
3 If a court declares under this section that a recognizance is to be forfeited it must—
a adjudge the parent or guardian to pay the sum in which he is bound;
b adjudge him to pay part of that sum; or
c remit that sum.
4 A court declaring under this section that a recognizance is to be forfeited may make an order under section 251 (power to allow payment by instalments); and in relation to a forfeiture under this section, section 251(2) to (7) have effect as if references to the fine or service compensation order were to the forfeiture.

b the court thinks that the usual default term is insufficient.
2 In subsection (1) “the usual default term” means the period for which the person would be liable to be committed to prison for default if—
a an enforcement order were made; and
b by virtue of that order, the amount payable under the service compensation order were treated as if it had been a fine imposed on a conviction by a magistrates' court in England and Wales.
3 Where this section applies, the court may specify a longer period as the maximum term to which the person is liable to be committed to prison for default if an enforcement order is made.
4 The Table in section 129(4) of the Sentencing Code (maximum periods of imprisonment for default), as for the time being in force, applies for the purpose of determining the maximum periods of imprisonment that may be specified under this section for service compensation orders of the amounts set out in that Table.

269C Orders under section 269A or 269B against service parents or service guardians: appeals

1 This section applies where—
a the Court Martial makes an order under section 268 in respect of a fine or service compensation order (fine or compensation to be paid by service parent or service guardian); and
b the court also makes an order under section 269A or 269B (“a default term order”) in respect of the parent or guardian (“P”).
2 For the purposes of the Court Martial Appeals Act 1968—
a the default term order is to be treated as a sentence passed on P for the offence in respect of which the fine or service compensation order was imposed; and
b P is to be treated, for the purpose of enabling P to appeal against the default term order, as if P had been convicted of the offence by the Court Martial.
3 For the purposes of any appeal against the default term order, references in section 16A of the Court Martial Appeals Act 1968 to passing a sentence include making an order.
4 On an appeal against the default term order, the Court Martial Appeal Court may (as an alternative to exercising its powers under section 16A(2) of that Act) quash the order; but this is subject to subsection (5).
5 If the default term order was made under section 269A, the power under subsection (4) may only be exercised if the court also quashes the order under section 268.

2A Subsection (2) is subject to section 208(10) and (11) of the Sentencing Code (community orders: punitive elements) as applied by section 178(3) and section 182(3A).
3 In forming any such opinion as is mentioned in subsection (1) or (2)(b), a court must take into account all such information as is available to it about the circumstances of the offence and any associated offence, including any aggravating or mitigating factors.
4 In forming an opinion for the purposes of subsection (2)(a) the court may take into account any information about the offender which is before it.
5 In determining the restrictions on liberty to be imposed by a community punishment in respect of an offence, the court may have regard to any period for which the offender has, since being charged with the offence or any related offence, been kept in service custody in connection with the offence or any related offence.
6 In subsection (5) “related offence” has the meaning given by section 247.
6A The fact that by virtue of any provision of this section—
a a community punishment may be awarded in respect of an offence, or
b particular restrictions on liberty may be imposed by a community punishment,
does not require a court to award such a punishment or to impose those restrictions.
7 Subsections (1) and (2)(b) are subject to section 270A.

270A Exception to restrictions on community punishments

1 If the conditions in subsection (2) are met, the power to award a community punishment in respect of an offence (“the current offence”) may be exercised even though the court would not otherwise regard—
a the current offence, or
b the combination of the current offence and one or more offences associated with it,
as serious enough to warrant a community punishment (despite the effect of section 238(1)(b)).
2 The conditions referred to in subsection (1) are—
a that the offender was aged 16 or over when convicted of the current offence;
b that on three or more previous occasions the offender has been awarded a relevant financial penalty; and
c that the court, having regard to all the circumstances, considers that it would be in the interests of justice to award a community punishment.
3 In subsection (2)(b) a “relevant financial penalty” means a sentence consisting only of a fine—
a passed on the offender in respect of a service offence F668... committed by the offender when aged 16 or over; or
b passed on the offender on conviction by a civilian court in the British Islands of an offence so committed; F670...
F671c . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
4 For the purposes of subsection (2)(b) it is immaterial whether the offender has on other previous occasions been awarded a sentence other than a relevant financial penalty.
5 The circumstances which must be had regard to under subsection (2)(c) include—
a the nature of the offences for which the relevant financial penalties were awarded;
b the relevance of those offences to the current offence; and
c the time that has elapsed since those penalties were awarded.
6 For the purposes of subsection (3), none of the following forms part of an offender's sentence—
za a criminal courts charge order (or an order under section 21A of the Prosecution of Offences Act 1985 (criminal courts charge));
a a service compensation order;
b a compensation order under—
i section 133 of the Sentencing Code (or section 130 of the Powers of Criminal Courts (Sentencing) Act 2000);
ii section 249 of the Criminal Procedure (Scotland) Act 1995; or
iii Article 14 of the Criminal Justice (Northern Ireland) Order 1994;
c a surcharge under section 42 of the Sentencing Code (or section 161A of the 2003 Act) ;
d an unlawful profit order under section 4 of the Prevention of Social Housing Fraud Act 2013.
e a slavery and trafficking reparation order under section 8 of the Modern Slavery Act 2015.
7 This section does not limit the extent to which a court may, in accordance with section 238, treat previous convictions of the offender as increasing the seriousness of an offence.

Chapter 2 Review of Court Martial Sentence

I303I812C127273 Review of unduly lenient sentence by Court Martial Appeal Court

1 If the Attorney General considers—
C40a that a sentence passed by the Court Martial in respect of an offence under section 42 (criminal conduct) is unduly lenient, and
b that condition A or B is satisfied,
he may refer the case to the Court Martial Appeal Court for it to review the sentencing of the offender.
2 Condition A is that the corresponding offence under the law of England and Wales is under that law an offence which, if committed by an adult, is triable only on indictment.
3 Condition B is that the case is of a description specified for the purposes of this subsection in an order made by the Secretary of State.
4 A reference under subsection (1) may not be made without the leave of the Court Martial Appeal Court.
5 On a reference under subsection (1), the Court Martial Appeal Court may—
a quash the sentence passed by the Court Martial; and
b pass in substitution for it any sentence which the Court Martial Appeal Court thinks appropriate and which is a sentence that the Court Martial had power to pass in respect of the offence.
6 For the purposes of subsection (1)(a), the Attorney General may consider that a sentence passed by the Court Martial is unduly lenient if he considers—
a that the Court Martial erred in law as to its powers of sentencing; or
b that the sentence is not that required by
i section 273(3) or 283(3) of the Sentencing Code as a result of section 218A(1B) or (2) (life sentence for second listed offence);
ii section 274(3) or 285(3) of the Sentencing Code as a result of section 219(1A) or (2) (life sentence for certain dangerous offenders aged 18 or over);

vi section 311(2) of the Sentencing Code as a result of section 227(2) (firearms offences); or
vii section 227A(1A) or (2) (threatening with a weapon in public or on school premises);
but nothing in this subsection limits subsection (1)(a).
7 Where a reference under subsection (1) relates to a case in which the Court Martial made a minimum term order under section 321 of the Sentencing Code, the Court Martial Appeal Court may not, in deciding what sentence is appropriate for the case, make any allowance for the fact that the offender is being sentenced for a second time.
F5067A . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
8 The reference in subsection (1)(a) to a sentence passed by the Court Martial does not include one passed on an appeal under section 285 (appeal from Service Civilian Court).

1 Where the Court Martial Appeal Court has concluded its review of a case referred to it under section 273(1), the Attorney General or the offender may refer to the Supreme Court a point of law involved in any sentence passed on the offender in the proceedings.
2 A reference under subsection (1) may not be made without the leave of the Court Martial Appeal Court or the Supreme Court.
3 Such leave may not be given unless—
a the Court Martial Appeal Court has certified that the point of law is of general public importance; and
b it appears to the Court Martial Appeal Court or the Supreme Court (as the case may be) that the point is one which should be considered by the Supreme Court.
4 The Supreme Court must give its opinion on any point of law referred to it under subsection (1) and must—
a remit the case to the Court Martial Appeal Court to be dealt with; or
b deal with the case itself.
5 For the purposes of dealing with a case itself the Supreme Court may exercise any powers of the Court Martial Appeal Court.

I305I1123275 Power to make supplementary provision about review of sentence

1 The Secretary of State may by regulations make supplementary provision with respect to references under section 273(1) or 274(1) (including provision with respect to applications, proceedings and other matters in connection with such references).
2 The regulations may in particular include provision which is equivalent to that made by, or capable of being made under, any provision of—
a this Act,
b the Court Martial Appeals Act 1968 (c. 20), or
c Schedule 3 to the Criminal Justice Act 1988 (c. 33) (reviews of sentencing; supplementary),

Chapter 3 Compensation for Miscarriages of Justice

I306I896276 Compensation for miscarriages of justice

1 Where—
a a person has been convicted by the Court Martial, and
b subsequently his conviction has been reversed, or he has been pardoned, on the ground that a new or newly discovered fact shows beyond reasonable doubt that there has been a miscarriage of justice,
the Secretary of State shall pay compensation for the miscarriage of justice to him or, if he is dead, to his personal representatives; but this is subject to subsections (2) to (3A).
2 Compensation under this section is not payable if the non-disclosure of the unknown fact was wholly or partly attributable to the person convicted.
3 Compensation under this section is not payable unless an application for such compensation has been made to the Secretary of State before the end of the period of 2 years beginning with the date on which the conviction of the person concerned is reversed or he is pardoned.
3A But the Secretary of State may direct that an application for compensation made after the end of that period is to be treated as if it had been made within that period if the Secretary of State considers that there are exceptional circumstances which justify doing so.
4 The question whether there is a right to compensation under this section is to be determined by the Secretary of State.
5 If the Secretary of State determines that there is a right to such compensation, the amount of the compensation is to be assessed by an assessor appointed by the Secretary of State.
6 Section 276A applies in relation to the assessment of the amount of the compensation.
7 The reference in subsection (1) to a conviction having been reversed is to be read as a reference to a conviction having been quashed—
a on an appeal out of time;
b on a reference under section 34 of the Court Martial Appeals Act 1968 (c. 20); or
c on a reference under section 12A of the Criminal Appeal Act 1995.
7A But in a case where—
a a person's conviction for an offence is quashed on an appeal out of time, and
b the person is to be subject to a retrial,
the conviction is not to be treated for the purposes of subsection (1) as “reversed” unless and until the person is acquitted of all offences at the retrial or the prosecution indicates that it has decided not to proceed with the retrial.
8 Schedule 9 (provision with regard to assessors) has effect.

276A Miscarriages of justice: amount of compensation

1 This section applies where an assessor is required to assess the amount of compensation payable to or in respect of a person under section 276 for a miscarriage of justice.
2 In assessing so much of any compensation payable under section 276 as is attributable to suffering, harm to reputation or similar damage, the assessor must have regard in particular to—
a the seriousness of the offence of which the person was convicted and the severity of the punishment resulting from the conviction, and
b the conduct of the investigation and prosecution of the offence.
3 The assessor may make from the total amount of compensation that the assessor would otherwise have assessed as payable under section 276 any deduction or deductions that the assessor considers appropriate by reason of either or both of the following—
a any conduct of the person appearing to the assessor to have directly or indirectly caused, or contributed to, the conviction concerned; and
b any other convictions of the person and any punishment resulting from them.
4 If, having had regard to any matters falling within subsection (3)(a) or (b), the assessor considers that there are exceptional circumstances which justify doing so, the assessor may determine that the amount of compensation payable under section 276 is to be a nominal amount only.
5 The total amount of compensation payable to or in respect of a person under section 276 for a particular miscarriage of justice must not exceed the overall compensation limit. That limit is—
a £1,300,000 in a case to which section 276B applies, and
b £650,000 in any other case.
6 The total amount of compensation payable under section 276 for a person's loss of earnings or earnings capacity in respect of any one year must not exceed the earnings compensation limit.That limit is an amount equal to 1.5 times the median annual gross earnings according to the latest figures published by the Office of National Statistics at the time of the assessment.
7 The Secretary of State may by order amend subsection (5) or (6) so as to alter any amount for the time being specified as the overall compensation limit or the earnings compensation limit.

276B Cases where person has been detained for at least 10 years

1 For the purposes of section 276A(5) this section applies to any case where the person concerned (“P”) has been in qualifying detention for a period (or total period) of at least 10 years by the time when—

b the pardon is given,
as mentioned in section 276(1).

c as a result of P's having been ordered to be kept in service custody, or remanded for mental health purposes, in connection with the relevant offence or with any other offence the charge for which was founded on the same facts or evidence as that for the relevant offence.
3 In calculating the period (or total period) during which P has been in qualifying detention as mentioned in subsection (1), no account is to be taken of any period of time during which P was both—
a in qualifying detention, and
b in excluded concurrent detention.
4 P was “in excluded concurrent detention” at any time when P was detained in a prison, a hospital or at any other place, if P was so detained—
a during the term of a sentence passed in respect of an offence other than the relevant offence,
b under mental health legislation by reason of P's conviction of any such other offence (disregarding any conditions other than the fact of the conviction that had to be fulfilled in order for P to be so detained), or
c as a result of P's having been ordered to be kept in service custody, or remanded for mental health purposes, in connection with an offence for which P was subsequently convicted other than—
i the relevant offence, or
ii any other offence the charge for which was founded on the same facts or evidence as that for the relevant offence.
5 But P was not “in excluded concurrent detention” at any time by virtue of subsection (4)(a), (b) or (c) if P's conviction of the other offence mentioned in that provision was quashed on appeal, or a pardon was given in respect of it.

2An offence of which a person is convicted falls within case A if the charge in respect of the offence is one in respect of which the person elected Court Martial trial under section 129 (whether or not the charge was amended after election).
3An offence of which a person (“the accused”) is convicted falls within case B if—
a the charge in respect of the offence was substituted under section 125(2)(b) for a charge in respect of which the accused elected Court Martial trial under section 129; and
b the substitution was not one for which the accused’s written consent was required by section 130A(2).
4Where—
a a person (“the accused”) elects Court Martial trial under section 129 in respect of a charge,
b at the time of the election, another charge brought against the accused (“the relevant charge”) is regarded for the purposes of Part 5 as allocated for summary hearing,
c the relevant charge is referred to the Director of Service Prosecutions under section 123(2)(e) without the accused having been given the opportunity to elect Court Martial trial of the charge, and
d the Court Martial convicts the accused of an offence alleged in the relevant charge,
that offence falls within case C.
5Where—
a a person (“the accused”) is charged with an offence which, if the accused were convicted of it, would fall within case C,
b another charge (“the new charge”) is substituted under section 125(2)(b) for the charge,
c the substitution is not one for which the accused’s written consent is required by section 130A(2), and
d the Court Martial convicts the accused of an offence alleged in the new charge,
that offence falls within case D.

Part 2 Sentencing powers etc

Sentencing powers: single relevant offence

6
1 This paragraph applies where—
a the Court Martial convicts a person (“the offender”) of a case A offence or a case B offence; and
b paragraph 8 (multiple relevant offences) does not apply.
2 The sentence passed in respect of the offence must be such that the offender’s commanding officer could have awarded the punishments awarded by that sentence if the commanding officer—
a had heard summarily the charge in respect of which the offender elected Court Martial trial; and
b had recorded a finding that the charge had been proved.
7
1 This paragraph applies where—
a the Court Martial convicts a person (“the offender”) of a case C offence or a case D offence; and
b paragraph 8 does not apply.
2 The sentence passed in respect of the offence must be such that the offender’s commanding officer could have awarded the punishments awarded by that sentence if the commanding officer—
a had heard summarily the charge referred as mentioned in paragraph 4(c); and
b had recorded a finding that the charge had been proved.

8 Multiple relevant offences

1 This paragraph applies where—
a the Court Martial convicts a person (“the offender”) of two or more relevant offences; and
b condition 1 or 2 is met in relation to any two or more of the offences.
2 Condition 1, in relation to any two or more offences, is that—
a each of the offences is a case A offence or a case B offence; and
b the relevant charges would have been heard summarily together if the offender had not elected Court Martial trial.
3 In sub-paragraph (2) “relevant charge” means—
a in relation to a case A offence, the charge in respect of that offence; and
b in relation to a case B offence, the charge in respect of which the offender elected Court Martial trial and for which the charge in respect of the case B offence was substituted.
4 Condition 2, in relation to any two or more offences, is that—
a each of the offences is a case C offence or a case D offence; and
b the referred charges would have been heard summarily together if they had not been referred as mentioned in paragraph 4(c).
5 In sub-paragraph (4) “referred charge” means—
a in relation to a case C offence, the charge in respect of that offence; and
b in relation to a case D offence, the charge referred as mentioned in paragraph 4(c) for which the charge in respect of the case D offence was substituted.

9 Sentencing powers: multiple relevant offences

1 This paragraph applies where paragraph 8 applies by virtue of a condition in that paragraph being met in relation to any two or more relevant offences.
2 The offences in relation to which the condition is met (“the joined offences”) are to be treated for the purposes of section 255 (individual sentence for each offence) as a single offence; and references in this paragraph to “the sentence” are to the sentence passed by the Court Martial in respect of the joined offences.
3 Where condition 1 in paragraph 8 is met in relation to the joined offences, the sentence must be such that the offender’s commanding officer could have awarded the punishments awarded by that sentence if the commanding officer—
a had heard the relevant charges (as defined by paragraph 8(3)) summarily together; and
b had recorded findings that the charges had been proved.
4 Where condition 2 in paragraph 8 is met in relation to the joined offences, the sentence must be such that the offender’s commanding officer could have awarded the punishments awarded by that sentence if the commanding officer—
a had heard the referred charges (as defined by paragraph 8(5)) summarily together; and
b had recorded findings that the charges had been proved.

Further provision about sentencing

10Where paragraph 9 applies, the following provisions apply in relation to the sentence as if it were a sentence being passed by an officer at a summary hearing—
  • section 242 (service detention: general restriction);
  • section 243 (length of term of service detention);
  • section 248 (forfeiture of seniority, reduction in rank or disrating).
11Where the Court Martial is dealing with an offender for an offence with which a relevant offence is associated, the offences are to be treated for the purposes of Part 9 (sentencing: principles and procedures) as not being associated.

12 Activation of suspended sentence of detention

1 This paragraph applies where—
a the Court Martial, on convicting a person (“the offender”) of a relevant offence, makes an order under section 191(3) in relation to a suspended sentence of service detention passed on the offender; and
b the suspended sentence was passed by an officer or the Summary Appeal Court.
2 The term of the suspended sentence as it takes effect by virtue of the order must not exceed 28 days unless the offender’s commanding officer would have had extended powers for the purposes of section 194 if—
a where the offence is a case A offence or a case B offence, the offender had not elected Court Martial trial; or
b where the offence is a case C offence or a case D offence, the charge referred as mentioned in paragraph 4(c) had not been so referred.
3 If—
a the Court Martial awards a term of service detention (“the new sentence”) in respect of the offence (or, where paragraph 9 applies, in respect of the offence and one or more other relevant offences), and
b the order under section 191(3) provides for the suspended sentence to take effect from the end of the new sentence,
the aggregate of the terms of the two sentences must not exceed 28 days or, where the extended powers condition is met, 90 days.
4 The extended powers condition is—
a where the offence is a case A offence or a case B offence, that the offender’s commanding officer would have had extended powers for the purposes of section 194 if the offender had not elected Court Martial trial;
b where the offence is a case C offence or a case D offence, that the offender’s commanding officer would have had extended powers for the purposes of section 194 if the charge referred as mentioned in paragraph 4(c) had not been so referred.
5 In determining for the purposes of sub-paragraph (2) or (4) whether the offender’s commanding officer would have had extended powers for the purposes of section 194 if, as the case may be—
a the offender had not elected Court Martial trial, or
b the charge referred as mentioned in paragraph 4(c) had not been so referred,
no account is to be taken of any of the matters mentioned in sub-paragraph (6).
6 Those matters are—
a any change in the commanding officer’s rank after the election or referral;
b in the case of sub-paragraph (2)(a) or (4)(a), any possibility that, if the offender had declined Court Martial trial, the commanding officer might subsequently have been granted extended powers for the purposes of section 194; and
c in the case of sub-paragraph (2)(b) or (4)(b), any possibility that, if the charge referred as mentioned in paragraph 4(c) had not been so referred, the commanding officer might have been granted extended powers for those purposes after the time when the charge was in fact referred.

13 Court orders other than sentences

1 The Court Martial may not make an order under section 229 (service restraining order) by virtue of—
a convicting a person of a relevant offence; or
b acquitting a person of an offence which would be a relevant offence if the person were convicted of it.

14 Review of unduly lenient sentences

In section 273 (review of unduly lenient sentence by Court Martial Appeal Court), the reference in subsection (1)(a) to an offence under section 42 does not include a relevant offence.

15 Appeals: application of Court Martial Appeals Act 1968 to multiple relevant offences

1 This paragraph applies where, by virtue of paragraph 9(2), the Court Martial passed a single sentence in respect of two or more relevant offences (“the joined offences”); and references in this paragraph to “the 1968 Act” are to the Court Martial Appeals Act 1968.
2 Where—
a section 13 of the 1968 Act (power to re-sentence when some but not all convictions successfully appealed) applies in relation to the sentence, but
b the appellant remains convicted of two or more of the joined offences,
those offences are to be treated for the purposes of section 13(2) of the 1968 Act as a single offence.
3 Sub-paragraph (4) applies where section 14 of the 1968 Act (substitution of conviction on different charge after plea of not guilty) applies in relation to a conviction of any of the joined offences.
4 The reference in section 14(2)(b) to a sentence that the Court Martial would have had power to pass in respect of the offence mentioned in section 14(1)(b) is to be read as a reference to a sentence that the Court Martial would have had power to pass in respect of all the applicable offences.
5 For the purposes of sub-paragraph (4) an offence is an “applicable offence” if it is—
a a joined offence of which the appellant remains convicted;
b an offence a finding of guilty of which has been substituted under section 14 of the 1968 Act for a finding of guilty of a joined offence; or
c an offence a plea of guilty of which has been substituted under section 14A of that Act for a plea of guilty of a joined offence.
6 Sub-paragraph (7) applies where—
a section 14A of the 1968 Act (substitution of conviction on different charge after guilty plea) applies in relation to a conviction of any of the joined offences; and
b section 14 of that Act does not so apply.
7 The reference in section 14A(2)(b) to a sentence that the Court Martial would have had power to pass in respect of the offence mentioned in section 14A(1)(b) is to be read as a reference to a sentence that the Court Martial would have had power to pass in respect of—
a all the joined offences of which the appellant remains convicted; and
b the offence a plea of guilty of which has been substituted under section 14A for a plea of guilty of a joined offence.
8 Where sub-paragraph (4) or (7) applies and the case also falls within section 13(1) of the 1968 Act, section 13 of that Act shall not apply.
9 In section 16A of the 1968 Act (appeals against sentence), the reference in subsection (2)(b) to the offence is to be read as a reference to the joined offences.

Part 3 Interpretation

16 “Commanding officer”

1 References in this Schedule to a person’s commanding officer are to the person’s commanding officer at the time the person elected Court Martial trial.
2 In determining for the purposes of paragraph 6(2), 7(2) or 9(3) or (4) the punishments that a person’s commanding officer could have awarded in respect of a charge or charges, no account is to be taken of—

b in the case of paragraph 6(2) or 9(3), any possibility that, if the person had declined Court Martial trial, the commanding officer might subsequently have been granted extended powers for the purposes of any provision of Chapter 1 of Part 6; or
c in the case of paragraph 7(2) or 9(4), any possibility that, if the charge or charges referred as mentioned in paragraph 4(c) had not been so referred, the commanding officer might have been granted extended powers for the purposes of any provision of Chapter 1 of Part 6 after the time when the referral in fact took place.
