4 For other provision that may be relevant in relation to sentencing, see—

a Criminal Procedure Rules, and

b sentencing guidelines.

^I2682 Application of Code¶

1 The Sentencing Code does not apply where a person is convicted of an offence before 1 December 2020.

2 Accordingly, any provision that corresponds to a provision of the Sentencing Code continues on and after that date to have effect as regards dealing with a person—

a for an offence of which the person was convicted before that date, and

b in relation to a sentence passed for an offence of which the person was convicted before that date.

3 Where on or after that date a court is dealing with a person in relation to an offence of which the person was convicted before that date and is required to treat the person as just convicted of the offence, the requirement does not mean that subsection (2) no longer applies.

Provisions applying to sentencing courts generally¶

SECOND GROUP OF PARTS

PART 2 Powers exercisable before passing sentence¶

CHAPTER 1 Deferment of sentence¶

^I7113 Deferment order¶

1 In this Code “deferment order” means an order deferring passing sentence on an offender in respect of one or more offences until the date specified in the order, to enable a court, in dealing with the offender, to have regard to—

a the offender's conduct after conviction (including, where appropriate, the offender's making reparation for the offence), or

b any change in the offender's circumstances.

2 A deferment order may impose requirements (“deferment requirements”) as to the offender's conduct during the period of deferment.

3 Deferment requirements may include—

a requirements as to the residence of the offender during all or part of the period of deferment;

b restorative justice requirements.

^I1634 Availability of deferment order¶

1 A deferment order is available to the Crown Court or a magistrates' court in respect of an offence where—

a the offender is before the court to be dealt with for the offence, and

b no previous deferment order has been made in respect of the offence.

See also section 11(4) (power of Crown Court to make further deferment order where magistrates' court commits offender for sentence).

2 But a deferment order is not available to a magistrates' court dealing with an offender in respect of an offence for which section 85(1)(a) (compulsory referral conditions) requires the court to make a referral order.

^I14055 Making a deferment order¶

1 A court may make a deferment order in respect of an offence only if—

a the offender consents,

b the offender undertakes to comply with any deferment requirements the court proposes to impose,

c if those requirements include a restorative justice requirement, section 7(2) (consent of participants in restorative justice activity) is satisfied, and

d the court is satisfied, having regard to the nature of the offence and the character and circumstances of the offender, that it would be in the interests of justice to make the order.

2 The date specified under section 3(1) in the order may not be —

a more than 6 months after the date on which the order is made, if the offender was convicted of the offence, or any of the offences, before the relevant date, or

b more than 12 months after the date on which the order is made, if the offender was convicted of the offence, or all of the offences, on or after the relevant date.

2A In subsection (2) “the relevant date” means the date on which section 5 of the Sentencing Act 2026 came into force.

3 A court which makes a deferment order must forthwith give a copy of the order—

a to the offender,

b if it imposes deferment requirements that include a restorative justice requirement, to every person who would be a participant in the activity concerned (see section 7(1)),

c where an officer of a provider of probation services has been appointed to act as a supervisor, to that provider, and

d where a person has been appointed under section 8(1)(b) to act as a supervisor, to that person.

4 A court which makes a deferment order may not on the same occasion remand the offender, notwithstanding any enactment.

^I7536 Effect of deferment order¶

1 Where a deferment order has been made in respect of an offence, the court which deals with the offender for the offence may have regard to—

a the offender's conduct after conviction, or

b any change in the offender's circumstances.

2 The matters to which the court may have regard in dealing with the offender include, in particular—

a where appropriate, the making by the offender of reparation for the offence, and

b the extent to which the offender has complied with any deferment requirements.

3 Subsection (4) applies where—

a the court which made a deferment order proposes to deal with the offender on the date specified in the order, or

b the offender does not appear on that date.

4 The court may—

a issue a summons requiring the offender to appear before the court at the time and place specified in the summons, or

b issue a warrant for the offender's arrest which requires the offender to be brought before the court at the time and place specified in the warrant.

5 Subsection (6) applies where a magistrates' court makes a deferment order.

6 In making the order the court is to be regarded as having adjourned the trial under section 10(1) of the Magistrates' Courts Act 1980.Accordingly, sections 11(1) and 13(1) to (3A) and (5) of that Act (non-appearance of the accused) apply if the offender does not appear on the date specified in the deferment order (but this is without prejudice to subsection (4)).

^I12097 Restorative justice requirements¶

1 Any reference in this Chapter to a restorative justice requirement is to a requirement to participate in an activity—

a where the participants consist of, or include, the offender and one or more of the victims,

b which aims to maximise the offender's awareness of the impact of the offending concerned on the victims, and

c which gives an opportunity to a victim or victims to talk about, or by other means express experience of, the offending and its impact.

2 A restorative justice requirement may not be imposed as a deferment requirement without the consent of every person who would be a participant in the activity.

3 For the purposes of subsection (2), a supervisor and the offender do not count as proposed participants.

4 A person running an activity for the purposes of a restorative justice requirement must have regard to any guidance issued from time to time by the Secretary of State with a view to encouraging good practice in connection with such an activity.

5 In this section “victim” means a victim of, or other person affected by, the offending concerned.

^I12338 Deferment order: supervisor¶

Appointment of supervisor

1 Where a court makes a deferment order that imposes deferment requirements, it may appoint—

a an officer of a provider of probation services, or

b any other person the court thinks appropriate who consents to the appointment,

to act as a supervisor in relation to the offender.

Function of supervisor

2 A supervisor must—

a monitor the offender's compliance with the deferment requirements, and

b provide the court which deals with the offender for any offence in respect of which the order was made with such information as the court may require relating to the offender's compliance with the deferment requirements.

Supervisor appointed under subsection (1)(b): power of magistrates' court to issue summons

3 Where—

a a deferment order imposes deferment requirements,

b it falls to a magistrates' court to—

i deal with the offender for any offence in respect of which the order was made, or

ii determine under section 9(3)(b) whether the offender has failed to comply with a deferment requirement, and

c a justice of the peace is satisfied that a supervisor appointed under subsection (1)(b)—

i is likely to be able to give evidence that may assist the court in doing so, and

ii will not voluntarily attend as a witness,

the justice may issue a summons directed to that supervisor requiring the supervisor to attend before the court at the time and place appointed in the summons to give evidence.

^I2879 Failure to comply with deferment requirement¶

1 This section applies where—

a a court has made a deferment order that imposes deferment requirements, and

b a supervisor has reported to the court that the offender has failed to comply with one or more of the deferment requirements.

2 The court may issue—

a a summons requiring the offender to appear before it at the time and place specified in the summons, or

b a warrant for the offender's arrest which requires the offender to be brought before it at the time and place specified in the warrant.

3 The court may deal with the offender for the offence in respect of which the order was made before the end of the period of deferment if—

a the offender appears or is brought before the court under subsection (2), and

b the court is satisfied that the offender has failed to comply with one or more of the deferment requirements.

For the powers of the court in dealing with the offender under this subsection, see section 11.

^I91010 Conviction of offence during period of deferment¶

1 This section applies where a court has made a deferment order in respect of an offence.

Power of court which made deferment order

2 The court which made the order (“the original court”) may deal with the offender for the offence in respect of which the deferment order was made before the end of the period of deferment if during that period the offender is convicted in Great Britain of any offence.For the powers of the original court in dealing with the offender under this subsection, see section 11.

3 Where the original court proposes to deal with the offender by virtue of subsection (2) before the end of the period of deferment, it may issue—

a a summons requiring the offender to appear before the court at the time and place specified in the summons, or

b a warrant for the arrest of the offender, requiring the offender to be brought before the court at the time and place specified in the warrant.

Power of court which sentences offender for later offence

4 Subsection (5) applies where during the period of deferment the offender is convicted in England and Wales of any offence (“the later offence”).This is subject to subsection (6).

5 The court which passes sentence on the offender for the later offence may also deal with the offender for the offence or offences in respect of which the deferment order was made (if this has not already been done).For the powers of the court in dealing with the offender under this subsection, see section 11.

6 Subsection (5) does not apply where—

a the deferment order was made by the Crown Court, and

b the court which passes sentence on the offender for the later offence is a magistrates' court.

7 Subsection (5)—

a is without prejudice to subsection (2), and

b applies whether or not the offender is sentenced for the later offence during the period of deferment.

^I108211 Powers of court dealing with offender following deferment order¶

1 Subsection (2) applies where an offender who is subject to a deferment order is being dealt with for any offence in respect of which the order was made—

a by the court which made the order (“the original court”)—

i at the end of the period of deferment, in accordance with the deferment order,

ii under section 9(3) (failure to comply with deferment requirement), or

iii under section 10(2) (original court dealing with offender following conviction during period of deferment), or

b by any court under section 10(5) (conviction during period of deferment: convicting court dealing with offender).

2 The court may deal with the offender for the offence in any way in which the original court could have dealt with the offender for the offence if it had not made a deferment order.

3 Where a magistrates' court is dealing with the offender, its power under that subsection includes, in particular, the power in section 14 to commit the offender to the Crown Court for sentence.

4 Where a magistrates' court deals with the offender by committing the offender to the Crown Court under section 14, the power of the Crown Court to deal with the offender includes the same power to make a deferment order as if the offender had just been convicted of the offence on indictment before it.

^I120812 Saving for power to bind over and other powers to defer sentence¶

Nothing in this Chapter affects—

a the power of the Crown Court to bind over an offender to come up for judgment when called upon, or

b any other power of a court to defer passing sentence.

^I4413 Deferment orders: interpretation¶

1 In this Chapter—

“deferment requirement” has the meaning given by section 3(2);
“period of deferment”, in relation to a deferment order, means the period from the date on which the deferment order is made until the date specified in the order under section 3(1);
“restorative justice requirement” has the meaning given by section 7;
“supervisor”, in relation to a deferment order, means a person appointed under section 8(1).

2 In relation to a deferment order made by a magistrates' court, any reference in this Chapter to the court which made the order includes a reference to any magistrates' court acting in the same local justice area as that court.

a must inquire into the circumstances of the case, and

b may deal with the offender for the offence in any way in which the magistrates' court could have dealt with the offender (assuming it had convicted the offender of the offence).

3 Subsection (4) applies where under section 20(4)(b) a magistrates' court commits a person to be dealt with by the Crown Court in respect of a suspended sentence.

4 The powers under paragraphs 13 and 14 of Schedule 16 (power of court to deal with suspended sentence) are exercisable by the Crown Court.

5 Subsection (6) applies where under section 20 a magistrates' court commits a person to be dealt with by the Crown Court.

6 Without prejudice to subsections (1) to (4), any duty or power which, apart from this subsection, would fall to be discharged or exercised by the magistrates' court—

a is not to be discharged or exercised by that court, but

b is instead to be discharged or may instead be exercised by the Crown Court.

CHAPTER 3 Remission to youth court or other magistrates' court for sentence¶

^I94925 Power and duty to remit offenders aged under 18 to youth courts for sentence¶

1 This section applies where a person aged under 18 is convicted by or before a court (“the convicting court”) of an offence other than homicide.

2 If the convicting court is the Crown Court, it must remit the offender to a youth court acting for the place where the sending court sat, unless satisfied that it would be undesirable to do so.The “sending court” is the magistrates' court which sent the offender to the Crown Court for trial.

2A If—

a the convicting court is a magistrates’ court, and

b that court commits the offender to the Crown Court for sentence,

the Crown Court may remit the offender to a youth court acting for the place where the convicting court sat.

3 If the convicting court is a youth court, it may remit the offender to another youth court.

4 If the convicting court is a magistrates' court other than a youth court—

a it may remit the offender to a youth court, and

b must do so unless subsection (5) applies.

5 This subsection applies where the convicting court—

a would be required by section 85(1)(a) to make a referral order if it did not remit the offender to a youth court, or

b is of the opinion that the case is one which can properly be dealt with by means of—

i an order for absolute discharge or an order for conditional discharge,

ii a fine, or

iii an order (under section 376) requiring the offender's parent or guardian to enter into a recognizance to take proper care of, and exercise proper control over, the offender,

with or without any other order that the court has power to make when making an order for absolute discharge or an order for conditional discharge.

6 For the purposes of subsection (5)(b)(iii)—

a “care” and “control” are to be read in accordance with section 376(3) (binding over of parent or guardian), and

b section 404 (certain references to parent or guardian to be read as references to local authority) does not apply.

7 Any remission of an offender under subsection (3) or (4) must be to a youth court acting for—

a the same place as the remitting court, or

b the place where the offender habitually resides.

8 Where an offender is remitted to a youth court under this section, that court may deal with the offender in any way in which it could deal with the offender if it had convicted the offender of the offence.

9 A court which remits an offender to a youth court under this section must provide the designated officer for the youth court with a certificate which—

a sets out the nature of the offence, and

b states—

i that the offender has been convicted of the offence, and

ii that the offender has been remitted for the purpose of being dealt with under subsection (8).

10 A document which purports—

a to be a copy of an order made by a court under this section, and

b to be certified as a true copy by the designated officer for the court,

is to be evidence of the order.

25A Power to remit adult offenders to magistrates’ courts for sentence¶

1 This section applies where a person aged 18 or over, or a person who is not an individual—

a has been convicted of an offence by a magistrates’ court and committed to the Crown Court for sentence, or

b has been convicted of an offence (other than an offence triable only on indictment) by the Crown Court following a plea of guilty.

2 The Crown Court may remit the offender to a magistrates’ court for sentence.

3 In deciding whether to exercise the power in subsection (2), the Crown Court must—

a take into account any other offence before the Crown Court that appears to the court to be related to that offence (whether the same, or a different, person is accused or has been convicted of the other offence), and

b have regard to any allocation guidelines (or revised allocation guidelines) issued as definitive guidelines under section 122 of the Coroners and Justice Act 2009.

4 There is no right of appeal against an order under subsection (2).

^I28026 Remission by Crown Court to youth court or other magistrates’ court: custody or bail, and appeals¶

1 This section applies where the Crown Court remits an offender to a youth court under section 25 or a magistrates’ court under section 25A.

2 The Crown Court may, subject to section 25 of the Criminal Justice and Public Order Act 1994 (restrictions on granting bail), give such directions as appear to be necessary—

a with respect to the custody of the offender, or

b for the offender's release on bail,

until the offender can appear or be brought before the youth court or magistrates’ court.

3 The offender—

a has no right of appeal against the order of remission, but

b has the same right of appeal against an order of the youth court or magistrates’ court as if convicted by that court.

^I11427 Power of youth court to remit offender who attains age of 18 to magistrates' court other than youth court for sentence¶

1 Subsection (2) applies where a person who appears or is brought before a youth court charged with an offence subsequently reaches the age of 18.

2 The youth court may, at any time after conviction and before sentence, remit the offender for sentence to a magistrates' court other than a youth court (“the adult court”).

3 Where an offender is remitted under subsection (2), the adult court may deal with the offender in any way in which it could deal with the offender if it had convicted the offender of the offence.

4 Where an offender is remitted under subsection (2), section 25(4) (duty of adult magistrates' court to remit young offenders to youth court for sentence) does not apply to the adult court.

^I58728 Power of magistrates' court to remit case to another magistrates' court for sentence¶

1 Subsection (2) applies where—

a a person aged 18 or over has been convicted by a magistrates' court (“the convicting court”) of a relevant offence (“the present offence”),

b it appears to the convicting court that some other magistrates' court (“the other court”) has convicted the offender of another relevant offence in respect of which the other court has not—

i passed sentence on the offender,

ii committed the offender to the Crown Court for sentence, nor

iii dealt with the offender in any other way, and

c the other court consents to the offender's being remitted to it under this section.

2 The convicting court may remit the offender to the other court to be dealt with in respect of the present offence by the other court instead of by the convicting court.

3 In subsection (1), “relevant offence”, in relation to the convicting court or the other court, means an offence which is punishable by that court with—

a imprisonment, or

b driving disqualification.

For this purpose, an offence is punishable by a court with driving disqualification if the court has a power or duty to order the offender to be disqualified under section 34, 35 or 36 of the Road Traffic Offenders Act 1988 (disqualification for certain motoring offences) in respect of it.

4 Where the convicting court remits the offender to the other court under this section the other court may deal with the offender in any way in which it could deal with the offender if it had convicted the offender of the present offence.This is subject to subsection (7).

5 The power conferred on the other court by subsection (4) includes, where applicable, the power to remit the offender under this section to another magistrates' court in respect of the present offence.

6 Where the convicting court has remitted the offender under this section, the other court may remit the offender back to the convicting court; and where it does so subsections (4) and (5) (so far as applicable) apply with the necessary modifications.

7 Nothing in this section prevents the convicting court from making a restitution order (see section 147) by virtue of the offender's conviction of the present offence.

8 In this section “conviction” includes a finding under section 11(1) of the Powers of Criminal Courts (Sentencing) Act 2000 (remand for medical examination) that the person in question did the act or made the omission charged, and “convicted” is to be read accordingly.

^I50329 Remission by magistrates' court: adjournment, remand and appeal¶

1 This section applies where a magistrates' court (“the remitting court”) remits an offender under section 25, 27 or 28 to another magistrates' court (“the other court”) to be dealt with in respect of an offence.

2 The remitting court must adjourn proceedings in relation to the offence.

3 Any remand enactment has effect, in relation to the remitting court's power or duty to remand the offender on that adjournment, as if any reference to the court to or before which the person remanded is to be brought or appear after remand were a reference to the other court.

4 In this section, “remand enactment” means section 128 of the Magistrates' Courts Act 1980 (remand in custody or on bail) or any other enactment, whenever passed or made, relating to remand or the granting of bail in criminal proceedings; and for this purpose—

a “enactment” includes an enactment contained in any order, regulation or other instrument having effect by virtue of an Act, and

b “bail in criminal proceedings” has the same meaning as in the Bail Act 1976.

5 The offender has no right of appeal against the order of remission.This does not affect any right of appeal against an order made in respect of the offence by the other court.

PART 3 Procedure¶

CHAPTER 1 Information and reports¶

Pre-sentence reports¶

^I57830 Pre-sentence report requirements¶

1 This section applies where, by virtue of any provision of this Code, the pre-sentence report requirements apply to a court in relation to forming an opinion.

2 If the offender is aged 18 or over, the court must obtain and consider a pre-sentence report before forming the opinion unless, in the circumstances of the case, it considers that it is unnecessary to obtain a pre-sentence report.

3 If the offender is aged under 18, the court must obtain and consider a pre-sentence report before forming the opinion unless—

a there exists a previous pre-sentence report obtained in respect of the offender, and

b the court considers—

i in the circumstances of the case, and

ii having had regard to the information contained in that report or, if there is more than one, the most recent report,

that it is unnecessary to obtain a pre-sentence report.

4 Where a court does not obtain and consider a pre-sentence report before forming an opinion in relation to which the pre-sentence report requirements apply, no custodial sentence or community sentence is invalidated by the fact that it did not do so.

^I106231 Meaning of “pre-sentence report” etc¶

“Pre-sentence report”

^C1421 In this Code “pre-sentence report” means a report which—

a is made or submitted by an appropriate officer with a view to assisting the court in determining the most suitable method of dealing with an offender, and

b contains information as to such matters, presented in such manner, as may be prescribed by rules made by the Secretary of State.

2 In subsection (1), “an appropriate officer” means—

a where the offender is aged 18 or over, an officer of a provider of probation services;

b where the offender is aged under 18—

i an officer of a provider of probation services,

ii a social worker of a local authority, or

iii a member of a youth offending team.

3 Rules under subsection (1)(b) are subject to the negative resolution procedure.

“Obtaining” a pre-sentence report

4 Where by any provision of this Code, the court is required to obtain a pre-sentence report, it may accept a pre-sentence report given orally in open court.But this is subject to—

a any rules made under subsection (1)(b), and

b subsection (5).

5 A pre-sentence report must be in writing if it—

a relates to an offender aged under 18, and

b is required to be obtained and considered before the court forms an opinion mentioned in—

i section 230(2) (seriousness threshold for discretionary custodial sentence),

ii section 231(2) (determining term of custodial sentence),

iii section 255(1)(c) (determining risk of harm to public for purpose of extended sentence), or

iv section 258(1)(c) (determining risk of harm to public for purpose of required life sentence).

^I81632 Disclosure of pre-sentence reports¶

^C341 This section applies where the court obtains a pre-sentence report, other than a report given orally in open court.

Copy for offender and parent or guardian

^C342 The court must give a copy of the report—

a to the offender or the offender's legal representative, and

b if the offender is aged under 18, to any parent or guardian of the offender who is present in court.

^C343 But if—

a the offender is aged under 18, and

b it appears to the court that the disclosure of any information contained in the report—

i to the offender, or

ii to a parent or guardian of the offender,

would be likely to create a risk of significant harm to the offender,

a complete copy of the report need not be given to the offender or, as the case may be, to that parent or guardian.For this purpose, “harm” has the same meaning as in section 31 of the Children Act 1989.

Copy for prosecutor

^C344 The court must give a copy of the report to the prosecutor, that is to say, the person having the conduct of the proceedings in respect of the offence.

5 But a copy of the report need not be given to the prosecutor if the court considers that it would be inappropriate for the prosecutor to be given it.But this subsection does not apply if the prosecutor is of a description specified in regulations made by the Secretary of State.

^C346 No information obtained by virtue of subsection (4) may be used or disclosed otherwise than for the purpose of—

a determining whether representations as to matters contained in the report need to be made to the court, or

b making such representations to the court.

7 Regulations under subsection (5) are subject to the negative resolution procedure.

^I87133 Appeals: requirements relating to pre-sentence reports¶

1 Any court, on an appeal against a custodial sentence or a community sentence, must—

a subject to subsection (2) or (3), obtain a pre-sentence report if none was obtained by the court below, and

b consider any such report obtained by it or by the court below.

2 If the offender is aged 18 or over, the court need not obtain a pre-sentence report if it considers—

a that the court below was justified in not obtaining a pre-sentence report, or

b that, in the circumstances of the case at the time it is before the court, it is unnecessary to obtain a pre-sentence report.

3 If the offender is aged under 18, the court need not obtain a pre-sentence report if—

a there exists a previous pre-sentence report obtained in respect of the offender, and

b the court considers, having had regard to the information contained in that report or, if there is more than one, the most recent report—

i that the court below was justified in not obtaining a pre-sentence report, or

ii that, in the circumstances of the case at the time it is before the court, it is unnecessary to obtain a pre-sentence report.

Other reports of providers of probation services etc¶

^I98934 Disclosure of other reports¶

1 This section applies where—

a a report by—

i an officer of a provider of probation services, or

ii a member of a youth offending team,

is made to any court (other than a youth court) with a view to assisting the court in determining the most suitable method of dealing with any person in respect of an offence, and

b the report is not a pre-sentence report.

2 The court must give a copy of the report—

a to the offender or the offender's legal representative, and

b if the offender is aged under 18, to any parent or guardian of the offender who is present in court.

3 But if—

a the offender is aged under 18, and

b it appears to the court that the disclosure of any information contained in the report—

i to the offender, or

ii to a parent or guardian of the offender,

would be likely to create a risk of significant harm to the offender,

Financial circumstances orders¶

^I31535 Powers to order statement as to offender's financial circumstances¶

1 In this Code, “financial circumstances order”, in relation to an individual, means an order requiring the individual to give the court, before the end of the period specified in the order, such a statement of the individual's assets and other financial circumstances as the court may require.

2 Where an individual has been convicted of an offence, the court may, before sentencing the individual, make a financial circumstances order with respect to the individual.

3 Where a magistrates' court has been notified in accordance with section 12(4) of the Magistrates' Courts Act 1980 that an individual desires to plead guilty without appearing before the court, the court may make a financial circumstances order with respect to the individual.

4 Where—

a an individual aged under 18 has been convicted of an offence, and

b the court is considering whether to make an order under section 380 in respect of the individual's parent or guardian (power to order parent or guardian to pay fine, costs, compensation or surcharge),

the court may make a financial circumstances order with respect to the parent or (as the case may be) guardian.

^I102436 Financial circumstances order: offences¶

1 It is an offence for an individual to fail without reasonable excuse to comply with a financial circumstances order.

2 An individual who is guilty of an offence under subsection (1) is liable on summary conviction to a fine not exceeding level 3 on the standard scale.

3 It is an offence for an individual, in furnishing any statement in pursuance of a financial circumstances order—

a to make a statement which the individual knows to be false in a material particular,

b recklessly to furnish a statement which is false in a material particular, or

c knowingly to fail to disclose any material fact.

4 An individual who is guilty of an offence under subsection (3) is liable on summary conviction to a fine not exceeding level 4 on the standard scale.

5 Proceedings for an offence under subsection (3) may be commenced at any time which is both—

a within 2 years from the date of the offence, and

b within 6 months from its first discovery by the prosecutor.

This subsection has effect despite anything in section 127(1) of the Magistrates' Courts Act 1980 (limitation of time).

Other powers to obtain reports etc¶

^I100737 Reports and information: other powers of court¶

1 For other powers and duties of a court in relation to obtaining information or a report before passing sentence, see—

a section 232 (medical report before passing certain custodial sentence in case of offender suffering from mental disorder);

b section 48(3) of the Children and Young Persons Act 1933 (power of youth court to remand for purpose of enabling information to be obtained with respect to offender aged under 18);

c section 10(3) of the Magistrates' Courts Act 1980 (adjournment by magistrates' court for purpose of enabling enquiries);

d section 35 of the Mental Health Act 1983 (remand to hospital for a report on the person's mental condition).

3 The court may make a derogatory assertion order in relation to an assertion to which this section applies where there are substantial grounds for believing—

a that the assertion is derogatory to a person's character (for instance, because it suggests that the person's conduct is or has been criminal, immoral or improper), and

b that the assertion is false or that the facts asserted are irrelevant to the sentence.

4 Where it appears to the court that there is a real possibility that a derogatory assertion order will be made in relation to an assertion, the court may make an interim derogatory assertion order in relation to it (see subsection (8)).

5 No derogatory assertion order or interim derogatory assertion order may be made in relation to an assertion which it appears to the court was previously made—

a at the trial at which the offender was convicted of the offence, or

b during any other proceedings relating to the offence.

b reproduces the actual wording of the matter asserted or contains its substance.

3 Nothing in section 38 or 39 affects any prohibition or restriction imposed by virtue of any other enactment on a publication or on matter included in a programme.

CHAPTER 3 Surcharge¶

^I130742 Court's duty to order payment of surcharge¶

^C541 A court when dealing with an offender for one or more offences committed on or after 1 April 2007 must also order the offender to pay a surcharge.This is subject to subsections (2) to (4).

b is subject to section 15 of the Proceeds of Crime Act 2002 (effect on duty in subsection (1) when proceedings on confiscation order are postponed).

3 Where a court dealing with an offender considers—

i a compensation order,

ii an unlawful profit order, and

iii a slavery and trafficking reparation order, but

b that the offender has insufficient means to pay both the surcharge and appropriate amounts under such of those orders as it would be appropriate to make,

the court must reduce the surcharge accordingly (if necessary to nil).But see section 13(4) of the Proceeds of Crime Act 2002 (court not to take confiscation order into account.)

4 Where an offender aged under 18 is convicted of an offence and, but for this subsection, a court would order the offender to pay a surcharge—

a section 380 (orders for payment by parent or guardian) applies to the surcharge, and

b for the purposes of any order under that section in respect of the surcharge, subsection (3)(b) of this section is to be read as if the reference to the offender's means were to the means of the offender's parent or guardian.

5 For the purposes of this section a court does not “deal with” a person if it—

a discharges the person absolutely, or

b makes an order under the Mental Health Act 1983 in respect of the person.

6 In this section—

“slavery and trafficking reparation order” means an order under section 8 of the Modern Slavery Act 2015;

Mitigating factors¶

^I132073 Reduction in sentence for guilty plea¶

1 This section applies where a court is determining what sentence to pass on an offender who has pleaded guilty to an offence in proceedings before that or another court.

2 The court must take into account the following matters—

a the stage in the proceedings for the offence at which the offender indicated the intention to plead guilty, and

b the circumstances in which the indication was given.

2A If the court imposes a serious terrorism sentence in relation to the offence, nothing in section 268C(2) or, as the case may be, 282C(2) prevents the court, after taking into account any matter referred to in subsection (2), from imposing as the appropriate custodial term a term of any length which is not less than 80 per cent of the term which would otherwise be required.

3 If—

a a mandatory sentence requirement applies in relation to the offence (see section 399) by virtue of a provision mentioned in subsection (4), and

b the offender is aged 18 or over when convicted,

the mandatory sentence requirement does not prevent the court, after taking into account any matter referred to in subsection (2), from imposing any sentence which is not less than 80 per cent of the sentence which would otherwise be required by that requirement.

4 The provisions referred to in subsection (3)(a) are—

a section 312 (minimum sentence for threatening with weapon or corrosive substance or bladed article);

5 If—

a a mandatory sentence requirement applies in relation to the offence by virtue of—

i section 312, or

ii section 315, and

b the offender is aged 16 or 17 when convicted,

the mandatory sentence requirement does not prevent the court from imposing any sentence that it considers appropriate after taking into account any matter referred to in subsection (2).

^I22074 Reduction in sentence for assistance to prosecution¶

1 This section applies where the Crown Court is determining what sentence to pass in respect of an offence on an offender who—

a pleaded guilty to the offence,

b was convicted in the Crown Court or committed to the Crown Court for sentence, and

c pursuant to a written agreement made with a specified prosecutor, has assisted or offered to assist—

i the investigator,

ii or the specified prosecutor or any other prosecutor,

in relation to that or any other offence.

2 The court may take into account the extent and nature of the assistance given or offered.

3 If the court passes a sentence which is less than it would have passed but for the assistance given or offered, it must state in open court—

a that it has passed a lesser sentence than it would otherwise have passed, and

b what the greater sentence would have been.

This is subject to subsection (4).

4 If the court considers that it would not be in the public interest to disclose that the sentence has been discounted by virtue of this section—

a subsection (3) does not apply,

b the court must give a written statement of the matters specified in subsection (3)(a) and (b) to—

i the prosecutor, and

ii the offender, and

c sections 52(2) and 322(4) (requirement to explain reasons for sentence or other order) do not apply to the extent that the explanation will disclose that a sentence has been discounted by virtue of this section.

4A Nothing in section 268C(2) or 282C(2) (minimum appropriate custodial term for serious terrorism sentences) affects the court's power under subsection (2) so far it relates to determining the appropriate custodial term.

5 Nothing in—

a any of the provisions listed in section 399(b) or (c) (minimum sentences in certain circumstances), or

b section 321 (and Schedule 21) (determination of minimum term in relation to mandatory life sentence),

affects the court's power under subsection (2).

Effect of Code on other powers of court in assessing seriousness¶

^I69476 Effect of Chapter on other powers of court to consider seriousness¶

Nothing in this Chapter that requires or permits a court to take any matter into account for the purpose of sentencing an offender for an offence is to be taken to prevent a court taking any other matter into account for that purpose.

^I84277 Basis of opinion provisions not to affect power to mitigate sentences¶

1 Nothing in any of the basis of opinion provisions prevents a court from mitigating an offender's sentence by taking into account any matters that, in the opinion of the court, are relevant in mitigation of sentence.

2 Section 230(2) (threshold for imposing discretionary custodial sentence) does not prevent a court, after taking into account such matters, from passing a community sentence even though it is of the opinion that—

a the offence, or

b the combination of the offence and one or more offences associated with it,

was so serious that a community sentence could not normally be justified for the offence.

3 Nothing in any of the basis of opinion provisions prevents a court—

a from mitigating any penalty included in an offender's sentence by taking into account any other penalty included in that sentence, and

b in the case of an offender who is convicted of one or more other offences, from mitigating the offender's sentence by applying any rule of law as to the totality of sentences.

4 Subsections (2) and (3) are not to be taken to limit subsection (1).

5 In this section “basis of opinion provision” means any of the following—

a section 30 or 33 (pre-sentence reports and other requirements);

b section 124, 125 or 126 (fixing of fine);

c section 179, 180 or 186(3) to (9) (exercise of power to impose youth rehabilitation order, with or without intensive supervision and surveillance or fostering, and other requirements);

d section 204 or 208(3) to (9) (exercise of power to impose community order, and community requirements);

e section 230, 231 or 232 (imposing custodial sentences).

^I84878 Basis of opinion provisions: offenders suffering from a mental disorder¶

1 Nothing in any of the basis of opinion provisions is to be taken—

a as requiring a court to pass—

i a custodial sentence, or

ii any particular custodial sentence,

on an offender suffering from a mental disorder, or

b as restricting any power (whether under the Mental Health Act 1983 or otherwise) which enables a court to deal with such an offender in the manner it considers to be most appropriate in all the circumstances.

2 In this section—

“mental disorder” has the same meaning as in the Mental Health Act 1983 (see section 1 of that Act);
“basis of opinion provision” has the same meaning as in section 77.

3 For provision about—

a the youth offender panel, see section 91;

2 That period must be—

a not less than 3 months, and

b not more than 12 months.

3 The youth offending team specified in the order must be the team which has the function of implementing referral orders in the area in which it appears to the court that the offender resides or will reside.

a the effect of the order, and

b the consequences which may follow—

i if no youth offender contract takes effect between the offender and the panel, or

ii if the offender breaches a youth offender contract.

Nothing in this subsection affects the court's duty under section 52 (duty to give reasons for and explain effect of sentence).

^I99587 Referral order consecutive to earlier referral order¶

1 Where—

a a court makes a referral order (“the later order”), and

b the offender is subject to an earlier referral order,

the court may direct that any youth offender contract under the later order is not to take effect until the earlier order is revoked or discharged.

2 For this purpose, the reference to an earlier referral order includes an order made under section 16 of the Powers of Criminal Courts (Sentencing) Act 2000 (referral orders).

^I95188 Making of referral order: connected offences¶

1 This section applies where a court makes referral orders in respect of two or more connected offences.

^I114490 Order requiring parents etc to attend meetings¶

1 This section applies where a court makes a referral order.

2 The court—

a may make an order requiring—

i the appropriate person, or

ii if there are two or more appropriate persons, one or more of them,

to attend the meetings of the youth offender panel, and

b must do so if the offender is aged under 16 when the referral order is made.

3 If the offender is—

a a looked-after child, and

b aged under 16 when the referral order is made,

the person or persons required under subsection (2) to attend those meetings must include at least one representative of the responsible authority.

4 But an order under subsection (2) must not require a person to attend those meetings—

a if the court is satisfied that it would be unreasonable to do so, or

b to an extent which the court is satisfied would be unreasonable.

5 For the purposes of this section, each of the following is an appropriate person in relation to an offender—

a if the offender is a looked-after child—

i a representative of the responsible authority, and

ii each person who is a parent or guardian of the offender with whom the offender is allowed to live;

b otherwise, each person who is a parent or guardian of the offender.

6 In this section—

“looked-after child” means a child who is (within the meaning of the Children Act 1989 or the Social Services and Well-being (Wales) Act 2014 (anaw 4)) looked after by a local authority, and
“responsible authority”, in relation to a looked-after child, means the authority by which the child is looked after.

7 The court must forthwith send a copy of an order under subsection (2)—

a to each person required by the order to attend meetings of the panel, and

b to any responsible authority whose representative is required by the order to attend meetings of the panel,

unless the person was present, or the authority was represented, in court when the order was made.

Youth offender panels¶

^I71391 Establishment of youth offender panels¶

1 This section applies where a court has made a referral order (or two or more associated referral orders).

2 The specified youth offending team must establish a youth offender panel for the offender.

3 The youth offender panel must—

a be constituted,

b conduct its proceedings, and

c discharge its functions under this Chapter,

in accordance with guidance issued from time to time by the Secretary of State.

4 But at each of its meetings the panel must consist of at least—

a one member appointed by the specified youth offending team from among its members, and

b two members appointed by that team who are not members of the team.

5 The Secretary of State may by regulations make provision requiring persons appointed as members of a youth offender panel to—

a have qualifications specified in the regulations;

b satisfy other criteria so specified.

6 Regulations under subsection (5) are subject to the negative resolution procedure.

7 The Secretary of State may revise any guidance issued under subsection (3).

^I121692 Attendance at panel meetings: offender and parent or guardian¶

1 This section applies to each meeting of the youth offender panel established for the offender.

2 The specified youth offending team must notify—

a the offender, and

b any person to whom an order under section 90 (requirement to attend meetings of the panel) applies,

of the time and place at which the person is required to attend the meeting.

3 If the offender fails to attend any part of the meeting the panel may—

a adjourn the meeting to such time and place as the panel may specify (in which case subsection (2) applies to the adjourned meeting), or

b end the meeting and refer the offender back to court.

^I94393 Failure of parent or guardian to comply with order under section 90¶

1 If—

a a parent or guardian of an offender fails to comply with an order under section 90 (orders requiring parents etc to attend meetings), and

b the offender is aged under 18 at the time of the failure,

the youth offender panel may refer the parent or guardian to a youth court acting in the local justice area in which it appears to the panel that the offender resides or will reside.

2 To make the referral, the panel must send a report to the youth court explaining why the parent or guardian is being referred to it.

3 A youth court which receives a report under subsection (2) must cause the parent or guardian to appear before it.

4 For that purpose, a justice acting in the local justice area in which the court acts may—

a issue a summons requiring the parent to appear before that youth court at the place and time specified in it, or

b if the report is substantiated on oath, issue a warrant for the parent's arrest which requires the parent to be brought before that court.

5 For the youth court's power to make a parenting order where the panel refers the parent or guardian under this section, see section 368 (parenting order where parent or guardian fails to attend meeting of panel).

6 Making a parenting order under that section does not affect the order under section 90.

7 Accordingly, section 63(1) to (4) of the Magistrates' Courts Act 1980 (power to deal with person for breach of order etc) applies in relation to an order under section 90 (in addition to this section and section 368).

^I20994 Attendance at panel meetings: other persons¶

1 At a meeting of a youth offender panel, the offender may be accompanied by one person aged 18 or over chosen by the offender with the agreement of the panel.

2 It need not be the same person who accompanies the offender to every meeting.

3 The panel may allow any of the following to attend a meeting—

a a victim;

3 But if, at the meeting, it appears to the panel that there is no prospect of reaching an agreement with the offender on an appropriate programme of behaviour within a reasonable period after the making of the referral order (or orders), the panel—

a may not consider the case at a further meeting under subsection (2)(b), and

b must instead refer the offender back to court.

4 If, at the meeting, the panel and the offender reach agreement on an appropriate programme of behaviour, but—

4 The panel must request the specified youth offending team to arrange a progress meeting if subsection (5) or (6) applies.

5 This subsection applies where the offender has notified the panel that the offender wishes—

a the youth offender contract to be varied, or

b to be referred back to court with a view to the referral order (or orders) being revoked on account of a significant change in the offender's circumstances (such as being taken to live abroad) which makes compliance with the contract impractical.

b decide whether or not the offender's compliance with the contract justifies the conclusion that the offender will have satisfactorily completed the contract by the end of the compliance period, and

c give the offender written confirmation of its decision.

4 A decision that the conclusion mentioned in subsection (3)(b) is justified—

a has the effect of discharging the referral order (or orders) as from the end of the compliance period, and

b can be made in the offender's absence.

5 If the panel decides that that conclusion is not justified, it must refer the offender back to court.

6 Nothing in section 92(3) permits the final meeting to be adjourned (or re-adjourned) to a time after the end of the compliance period.

3	£200	£400	£1,000
4	£500	£1,000	£2,500
5	£1,000	£2,000	£5,000.

2 In relation to a Code offence, a relevant reference to a particular level on the standard scale is to be read as referring to that level on the scale set out in the column of the table in subsection (1) that applies to offences committed on the date on which the offence was committed.

3 In relation to—

a a relevant reference in an enactment or instrument passed or made before 12 March 2015 to level 5 on the standard scale, and

Exercise of powers¶

^I39124 Fixing of fine: duty of court to inquire into individual offender's circumstances¶

1 The amount of any fine fixed by a court must be such as, in the opinion of the court, reflects the seriousness of the offence.

3 Subsection (2) applies whether taking into account the financial circumstances of the offender has the effect of increasing or reducing the amount of the fine.

4 In applying subsection (2), a court must not reduce the amount of a fine on account of any surcharge it orders the offender to pay under section 42, except to the extent that the offender has insufficient means to pay both.

5 For modifications of this section where the court also makes an order under section 380 (power to order parent or guardian to pay fine, costs, compensation or surcharge), see section 128.

6 For the effect of proceedings in relation to confiscation orders on the court's powers to impose or fix the amount of a fine, see the following provisions of the Proceeds of Crime Act 2002—

b has failed—

i to provide a statement of the offender's financial circumstances in response to a request which is an official request for the purposes of section 20A of the Criminal Justice Act 1991 (offence of making false statement as to financial circumstances),

ii to comply with an order under section 35(2) (statement as to offender's financial circumstances), or

iii otherwise to co-operate with the court in its inquiry into the offender's financial circumstances.

2 If the court considers that it has insufficient information to make a proper determination of the financial circumstances of the offender for the purposes of section 125, it may make such determination as it considers appropriate.

^I1078127 Remission of fines following determination under section 126¶

1 This section applies where a court has, in fixing the amount of a fine, determined the offender's financial circumstances under section 126 (offender absent or failing to provide information).

2 If on subsequently inquiring into the offender's financial circumstances the court is satisfied that, had it had the results of that inquiry when sentencing the offender, it—

a would have fixed a smaller amount, or

b would not have fined the offender,

it may remit the whole or part of the fine.

3 Where under this section the court remits the whole or part of a fine after a term of imprisonment, or detention under section 108 of the Powers of Criminal Courts (Sentencing) Act 2000, has been fixed under—

a section 129, or

b section 82(5) of the Magistrates' Courts Act 1980 (magistrates' powers in relation to default),

it must reduce the term by the corresponding proportion.

4 In calculating any reduction required by subsection (3), any fraction of a day is to be ignored.

5 Subsection (6) applies where—

a under this section the court remits the whole or part of a fine,

b the offender was ordered under section 42 to pay a surcharge, and

c the amount of the surcharge was set by reference to the amount of the fine.

b remit the balance of the surcharge.

2 Section 380 (order for payment by parent or guardian) applies to the fine.

3 Subsections (4) to (6) apply for the purposes of any order made under section 380 against the offender's parent or guardian.

4 The following provisions are to be read as if any reference to the financial circumstances of the offender were a reference to the financial circumstances of the offender's parent or guardian—

a section 124 (duty of court to inquire into individual offender's financial circumstances);

b subsections (2) and (3) of section 125 (fixing of fine: exercise of court's powers).

This is subject to subsection (7).

5 Section 126 (power to determine financial circumstances where offender is absent or fails to provide information) does not apply (but see section 382).

6 The reference to the offender's means in section 125(4) (insufficient means to pay fine and surcharge) is to be read as a reference to the means of the offender's parent or guardian.

7 For the purposes of any order under section 380 made against a local authority, section 124 does not apply.

^I252129 Fine imposed on offender by Crown Court: duty to make term in default order¶

1 This section applies when the Crown Court imposes a fine on an offender who is aged 18 or over when convicted of the offence.But it does not apply in relation to a fine imposed by the Crown Court on appeal against a decision of a magistrates' court.

2 Subsections (3) to (5) also apply in relation to a fine imposed on such an offender—

a by the criminal division of the Court of Appeal, or

b by the Supreme Court on appeal from that division.

3 The court must make an order (a “term in default order”) fixing a term—

a of imprisonment, or

b of detention under section 108 of the Powers of Criminal Courts (Sentencing) Act 2000,

which the offender is to undergo if any sum which the offender is liable to pay is not duly paid or recovered.

^C175^C914 Column 3 of the following table sets out the maximum term of imprisonment or detention under section 108 of the Powers of Criminal Courts (Sentencing) Act 2000 which may be fixed by a term in default order in relation to a sum that is—

a more than the corresponding entry (if any) in column 1, but

b not more than the corresponding entry (if any) in column 2.

Amount of sum		Maximum term
More than	Not more than	Maximum term
	£200	7 days
£200	£500	14 days
£500	£1,000	28 days
£1,000	£2,500	45 days
£2,500	£5,000	3 months
£5,000	£10,000	6 months
£10,000	£20,000	12 months
£20,000	£50,000	18 months
£50,000	£100,000	2 years
£100,000	£250,000	3 years
£250,000	£1,000,000	5 years
£1,000,000		10 years.

5 The offender may not be committed to prison, or detained, by virtue of a term in default order on the same occasion as the fine is imposed unless—

a the offence to which the fine relates is punishable with imprisonment and the offender appears to the court to have sufficient means to pay the sum forthwith,

b it appears to the court that the offender is unlikely to remain long enough at a place of abode in the United Kingdom to enable payment of the sum to be enforced by other methods,

c on that occasion the court sentences the offender to immediate imprisonment, custody for life or detention in a young offender institution for that or another offence, or

d the offender is already serving a sentence of custody for life or a term—

i of imprisonment,

ii of detention in a young offender institution, or

iii of detention under section 108 of the Powers of Criminal Courts (Sentencing) Act 2000 (detention in default).

6 Where any person liable for the payment of a fine to which this section applies is sentenced by the court to, or is serving or otherwise liable to serve, a term (“the current term”)—

a of imprisonment,

b of detention in a young offender institution, or

c of detention under section 108 of the Powers of Criminal Courts (Sentencing) Act 2000 (detention in default),

the court may order that any term of imprisonment or detention fixed by a term in default order is not to begin to run until after the end of the current term.

7 Nothing in any enactment which authorises the Crown Court to deal with an offender in any way in which a magistrates' court might have dealt, or could deal, with the offender restricts the powers conferred by this section.This is subject to subsection (8).

8 Where—

a the Crown Court imposes a fine in exercise of powers to deal with an offender in any way in which a magistrates' court might have dealt, or could deal, with the offender, and

b section 149(1) of the Customs and Excise Management Act 1979 (maximum periods of imprisonment in default of payment of certain fines) specifies a period that would have applied to the fine had it been imposed by a magistrates' court,

the term imposed by the Crown Court under subsection (3) in relation to the fine must not exceed that period.

9 For the purposes of any reference in this section, however expressed, to the term of imprisonment or other detention—

a to which a person has been sentenced, or

b which, or part of which, the person has served,

consecutive terms and terms which are wholly or partly concurrent are treated as a single term, unless the context otherwise requires.

10 Any reference in this section, however expressed, to a previous sentence is to be read as a reference to a previous sentence passed by a court in Great Britain.

^I519130 Fine imposed by Crown Court: power to allow time for payment or payment by instalments¶

When the Crown Court imposes a fine on an offender, it may make an order—

a allowing time for the payment of the fine, or

b directing payment of the fine by instalments of the amounts and on the dates specified in the order.

^I1146131 Fine imposed by Crown Court: power to search offender¶

See section 142 of the Powers of Criminal Courts (Sentencing) Act 2000 for the power of the Crown Court to search an offender on whom it imposes a fine.

^I813132 Enforcement of fines imposed on offenders by Crown Court¶

1 A fine imposed on an offender by the Crown Court is to be treated for the purposes of collection, enforcement and remission as having been imposed—

a by a magistrates' court specified in an order made by the Crown Court, or

b if no such order is made, by the magistrates' court by which the offender was sent to the Crown Court for trial under section 51 or 51A of the Crime and Disorder Act 1998,

and as having been so imposed on conviction by the magistrates' court in question.This is subject to subsection (5).

2 Subsection (3) applies where a magistrates' court issues a warrant of commitment on a default in the payment of a fine imposed by the Crown Court on an offender.

3 The term of imprisonment, or detention under section 108 of the Powers of Criminal Courts (Sentencing) Act 2000, specified in the warrant of commitment as the term which the offender is liable to serve is to be—

a the term fixed by the Crown Court under section 129(3), or

b if that term has been reduced under section 79(2) of the Magistrates' Courts Act 1980 (part payment) or section 85(2) of that Act (remission), that term as so reduced,

even if that term exceeds the period applicable to the case under section 149(1) of the Customs and Excise Management Act 1979 (maximum periods of imprisonment in default of payment of certain fines).

4 Subsections (1) to (3) apply in relation to a fine imposed on an offender—

a by the criminal division of the Court of Appeal, or

b by the Supreme Court on appeal from that division,

as they apply in relation to a fine imposed by the Crown Court.References in those subsections to the Crown Court (except the reference in subsection (1)(b)) are to be read accordingly.

5 A magistrates' court must not, under section 85(1) of the Magistrates' Courts Act 1980 as applied by subsection (1), remit the whole or any part of a fine imposed by—

a the Crown Court,

b the criminal division of the Court of Appeal, or

c the Supreme Court on appeal from that division,

without the consent of the Crown Court.

6 Where payment of a fine is enforceable by a magistrates' court by virtue of this section, the fine is to be treated for the purposes of section 38 of the Courts Act 2003 (application of receipts of designated officers) as having been imposed by a magistrates' court.

CHAPTER 2 Compensation orders¶

Compensation orders¶

^I675133 Compensation order¶

In this Code “compensation order” means an order under this Chapter made in respect of an offender for an offence that requires the offender—

a to pay compensation for any personal injury, loss or damage resulting from—

i the offence, or

ii any other offence which is taken into consideration by the court in determining the sentence for the offence, or

b to make payments for—

i funeral expenses, or

ii bereavement,

in respect of a death resulting from any such offence.

Making a compensation order¶

^I361134 Compensation order: availability¶

1 A compensation order is available to a court by or before which an offender is convicted of an offence.This is subject to section 136 (road accidents).

2 Where a compensation order is available, the court may make such an order whether or not it also deals with the offender for the offence in any other way.

^I866135 Making a compensation order¶

1 A compensation order must specify the amount to be paid under it.

2 That amount must be the amount that the court considers appropriate, having regard to any evidence and any representations that are made by or on behalf of the offender or the prosecution.But see also sections 136 to 139.

3 In determining—

a whether to make a compensation order against an offender, or

b the amount to be paid under such an order,

the court must have regard to the offender's means, so far as they appear or are known to the court.

4 Where the court considers—

a that it would be appropriate both to impose a fine and to make a compensation order, but

b that the offender has insufficient means to pay both an appropriate fine and appropriate compensation,

the court must give preference to compensation (though it may impose a fine as well).

5 For modifications of this section where the court also makes an order under section 380 (power to order parent or guardian to pay fine, costs, compensation or surcharge), see section 140.

6 For the effect of proceedings in relation to confiscation orders on the court's powers in relation to compensation orders, see the following provisions of the Proceeds of Crime Act 2002—

a section 13(4) (where confiscation order has been made);

b section 15 (where proceedings on a confiscation order have been postponed).

Particular cases¶

^I1112136 Road accidents¶

1 A compensation order may not be made in respect of funeral expenses or bereavement in respect of a death due to a road accident.

2 A compensation order may be made in respect of injury, loss or damage due to a road accident only if it is in respect of—

a loss suffered by a person's dependants in consequence of the person's death,

b damage which is treated by section 137 as resulting from an offence under the Theft Act 1968 or Fraud Act 2006, or

c uninsured harm.

3 In subsection (2), “uninsured harm” means injury, loss or damage as respects which—

a the offender was uninsured in relation to the use of the vehicle in question, and

b compensation is not payable under any arrangements to which the Secretary of State is a party.

An offender is not uninsured in relation to the use of a vehicle for this purpose if that use of it is exempted from insurance by section 144 of the Road Traffic Act 1988.

4 Where a compensation order is made in respect of injury, loss or damage due to a road accident, the amount to be paid may include an amount representing all or part of any loss of, or reduction in, preferential rates of insurance attributable to the accident.

5 In this Chapter, “road accident” means an accident arising out of the presence of a motor vehicle on a road.

^I1379137 Damage to property and clean-up costs resulting from certain offences¶

1 Subsection (2) applies in the case of an offence under the Theft Act 1968 or Fraud Act 2006, where the property in question is recovered.

2 Any damage to the property occurring while it was out of the owner's possession is to be treated for the purposes of section 133 as having resulted from the offence.This applies regardless of how the damage was caused and who caused it.

3 Section 29 of the Ancient Monuments and Archaeological Areas Act 1979 makes provision about the person in whose favour a compensation order relating to certain offences involving damage to monuments in England is to be made, and section 59 of the Historic Environment (Wales) Act 2023 makes equivalent provision for monuments in Wales.

4 Section 33B of the Environmental Protection Act 1990 (clean-up costs) provides for certain costs connected with certain offences relating to waste to be loss or damage resulting from those offences for the purposes of section 133.

^I379138 Funeral expenses and bereavement: cases other than road accidents¶

1 A compensation order in respect of funeral expenses may be made for the benefit of anyone who incurred the expenses.

2 A compensation order in respect of bereavement may be made only for the benefit of a person for whose benefit a claim for damages for bereavement could be made under section 1A of the Fatal Accidents Act 1976.

3 The amount to be paid in respect of bereavement under a compensation order must not exceed the amount for the time being specified in section 1A(3) of that Act.

4 This section is subject to section 136(1) (compensation order not available in respect of bereavement or funeral expenses in respect of a death due to a road accident).

Compensation orders made in respect of young offenders¶

^I463139 Limit on compensation payable under compensation order of magistrates' court in case of young offender¶

1 This section applies where—

a a magistrates' court is dealing with an offender for one or more offences (each, a “main offence”) of which the offender was convicted when aged under 18, and

b the court makes a compensation order in respect of—

i a main offence, or

ii any offence taken into consideration by the court in determining sentence for a main offence (a “TIC offence”).

2 The compensation in respect of a main offence must not exceed £5,000.

3 The total compensation in respect of main offences and TIC offences must not exceed £5,000 multiplied by the number of main offences.

4 This section is subject to section 33B(5) of the Environmental Protection Act 1990 (clean-up costs relating to certain offences relating to waste).

^I1287140 Compensation order: order for payment by parent or guardian¶

1 This section applies where—

a a court makes or is proposing to make a compensation order in respect of an offence, and

b the offender is aged under 18 when convicted.

2 Section 380 (order for payment by parent or guardian) applies to the amount to be paid under any such compensation order.

3 Subsection (4) applies for the purposes of any order made under section 380 against the offender's parent or guardian.

4 The references in subsections (3) and (4) of section 135 (taking account of offender's means in determining amount of compensation) to the offender's means are to be read as references to the means of the offender's parent or guardian.This is subject to subsection (5).

5 For the purposes of any order made under section 380 against a local authority, section 135(3) does not apply.

Compensation orders: supplementary¶

^I1098^C166^C30141 Compensation orders: suspension of entitlement and appeals etc¶

1 A person in whose favour a compensation order is made is not entitled to receive the amount due to the person until there is no further possibility of the order being varied or set aside on appeal (disregarding any power to grant leave to appeal out of time).

2 Criminal Procedure Rules may make provision about the way in which the appropriate court is to deal with money paid in satisfaction of a compensation order where the entitlement of the person in whose favour it was made is suspended under subsection (1).

3 The Court of Appeal may by order annul or vary any compensation order made by the Crown Court, even if the conviction is not quashed.

4 Where a compensation order is annulled or varied under subsection (3)—

a the compensation order—

i if annulled, is not to take effect;

ii if varied, is to take effect as varied;

b the Court of Appeal must also vary any order previously made under section 42 (court's duty to order payment of surcharge) so as to secure that the offender's liability under that order is the same as it would have been if the offender were being dealt with by the Crown Court.

5 Where the Supreme Court restores a conviction, it may make any compensation order which the court of trial could have made.

6 Where the Supreme Court makes an order under subsection (5), it must also—

a make an order under section 42, or

b vary any order previously made under that section,

so as to secure that the offender's liability under the order under that section is the same as it would have been if the offender were being dealt with by the Crown Court.

7 Where, in any proceedings in which an offender is convicted of one or more offences (each, a “main offence”), a compensation order is made against the offender in respect of an offence taken into consideration in determining sentence—

a the order ceases to have effect if the offender successfully appeals against conviction of the main offence or, if more than one, all the main offences;

b the offender may appeal against the order as if it were part of the sentence imposed in respect of the main offence or, if more than one, any of the main offences.

^I1151^C30142 Limit on compensation payable under compensation order of magistrates' court: offences committed before 11 December 2013¶

1 This section applies where—

a a magistrates' court is dealing with an offender for—

i an offence which was committed before 11 December 2013 (a “relevant offence”), or

ii one or more relevant offences, and

b the court makes a compensation order in respect of—

i any relevant offence,

ii any offence taken into consideration by the court in determining sentence for a relevant offence.

2 The compensation in respect of a relevant offence must not exceed the maximum amount.

3 The total compensation in respect of the offences taken into account in determining sentence for the relevant offence or relevant offences must not exceed the difference between—

a the relevant limit, and

b the total compensation in respect of the relevant offences.

4 In this section—

a the relevant limit is the aggregate of the maximum amounts for each relevant offence;

b “the maximum amount” in relation to a relevant offence means the amount specified in column 2 of the following table for an offence committed on the date of the relevant offence—

Date of commission of main offence	Maximum amount
Before 1 December 1977	£400
On or after 1 December 1977 but before 1 May 1984	£1,000
On or after 1 May 1984 but before 1 October 1992	£2,000
On or after 1 October 1992 but before 11 December 2013	£5,000.

5 This section is subject to section 33B(5) of the Environmental Protection Act 1990 (clean-up costs relating to certain offences relating to waste).

^I1392^C164^C30143 Review of compensation orders¶

1 This section applies where—

a a compensation order has been made,

b there is no further possibility of the compensation order being varied or set aside on appeal (disregarding any power to grant leave to appeal out of time), and

c the person against whom it was made has not paid into court the whole of the amount required to be paid under the order.

2 The appropriate court may, on the application of the person against whom the order was made—

a discharge the order, or

b reduce the amount which remains to be paid.

This is subject to subsection (3).

3 The appropriate court may exercise that power only—

a if it appears to the court that the injury, loss or damage in respect of which the compensation order was made has been held in civil proceedings to be less than it was taken to be for the purposes of the order,

b if, in the case of a compensation order in respect of the loss of any property, it appears to the court that the property has been recovered by the person in whose favour the order was made, or

c if—

i it appears to the court that the means of the person against whom the order was made are insufficient or have been reduced (see subsections (5) and (6)), and

ii where the compensation order was made by the Crown Court, the appropriate court has obtained the consent of the Crown Court.

4 Subsections (5) to (7) apply for the purposes of subsection (3)(c).

5 The person's means are “insufficient” if they are not sufficient to satisfy in full—

a the compensation order, and

b every order of any of the following kinds made against the person in the same proceedings—

i a confiscation order under Part 6 of the Criminal Justice Act 1988 or Part 2 of the Proceeds of Crime Act 2002;

ii an unlawful profit order under section 4 of the Prevention of Social Housing Fraud Act 2013;

iii a slavery and trafficking reparation order under section 8 of the Modern Slavery Act 2015.

6 The person's means “have been reduced” if they—

a have unexpectedly been substantially reduced since the compensation order was made, and

b seem unlikely to increase for a considerable period.

7 If the compensation order was made on appeal it is to be treated—

a if made on an appeal from a magistrates' court, as if made by that magistrates' court;

b if made on an appeal—

i from the Crown Court, or

ii from the Court of Appeal,

as if made by the Crown Court.

^I94^C79144 Effect of compensation order on subsequent award of damages in civil proceedings¶

1 This section has effect where—

a a compensation order has been made in favour of any person in respect of any injury, loss or damage, and

b a claim by the person in civil proceedings for damages in respect of the injury, loss or damage subsequently falls to be determined.

2 The damages in the civil proceedings must be assessed without regard to the order.

3 But the claimant may recover only an amount equal to the aggregate of—

a any amount by which the damages assessed exceed the compensation, and

b a sum equal to any portion of the compensation which the person fails to recover (“unrecovered compensation”).

4 The claimant may not enforce the judgment, so far as it relates to unrecovered compensation, without the leave of the court.

^I685145 Compensation orders: interpretation¶

1 In this Chapter—

“appropriate court”, in relation to a compensation order, means the magistrates' court which, by virtue of section 41(1) of the Administration of Justice Act 1970, for the time being has functions in relation to collection and enforcement of the order;
“road accident” has the meaning given by section 136.

2 For the purposes of this Chapter a compensation order is made in respect of an offence if it relates to personal injury, loss, damage or death resulting from that offence.For this purpose, “offence” includes an offence taken into consideration by a court when sentencing an offender for an offence of which the offender has been convicted.

Compensation etc under other Acts¶

^I1353146 Compensation etc under other Acts¶

For provision about other orders requiring payment of compensation etc that are available to courts dealing with offenders for particular offences, see—

Power to make order	Description of order
section 8 of the Modern Slavery Act 2015	slavery and trafficking reparation order where person convicted of offence under section 1, 2 or 4 of that Act
section 4 of the Prevention of Social Housing Fraud Act 2013	unlawful profit order on conviction of offence under section 1 or 2 of that Act or certain associated offences.

CHAPTER 3 Restitution and restoration¶

^I915147 Restitution order where goods stolen or obtained by blackmail or fraud¶

1 In this Code, “restitution order” means an order made in an offender's case with respect to particular goods (referred to in this section as “the stolen goods”) that—

a requires anyone who has possession or control of the stolen goods (“the holder”) to restore them to any other person entitled to recover them from the holder,

b requires any other goods representing the stolen goods to be transferred or delivered to any person entitled to recover those other goods from the offender,

c requires payment of a sum out of any removed money to any person who would be entitled to recover the stolen goods from the offender if they were in the offender's possession, or

d requires payment of a sum out of any removed money to—

i any person to whom the offender has sold the stolen goods, or

ii any person from whom the offender has borrowed money on the security of the stolen goods.

2 For the purposes of subsection (1)—

a goods represent the stolen goods if they are the proceeds of disposal or realisation of all or part of the stolen goods, or of other goods which represent the stolen goods;

b “removed money” means money of the offender which was taken out of the offender's possession when the offender was apprehended.

^I465148 Restitution order: availability¶

1 A restitution order with respect to particular goods is available to a court in an offender's case where—

a the goods have been stolen, and

b either—

i the offender is convicted by or before the court of an offence with reference to the theft of the goods, whether or not the stealing was the gist of it (an “offence related to the theft”), or

ii the court takes an offence related to the theft into consideration in determining sentence for any other offence of which the offender is convicted by or before the court.

2 A restitution order under section 147(1)(b) is available only on the application of the person in whose favour it is to be made.

3 A restitution order with respect to any goods under section 147(1)(d) is available only if the court has made a restitution order under section 147(1)(a) with respect to the goods.

4 Making a deferment order, or otherwise deferring sentence, does not preclude a court from making a restitution order.

^I1398149 Making a restitution order¶

1 This section applies where a restitution order is available to a court in an offender's case.

2 The court may make a restitution order only if in the opinion of the court the relevant facts sufficiently appear from any of the following—

a evidence given at the trial;

b any written statements or admissions which were made for use, and would have been admissible, as evidence at the trial;

c any documents served on the offender in pursuance of regulations made under paragraph 1 of Schedule 3 to the Crime and Disorder Act 1998 (procedure where persons sent for trial);

d admissions made by or on behalf of any person in connection with any proposed exercise of the powers to make a restitution order.

3 If the court makes restitution orders under paragraphs (b) and (c) of section 147(1) in respect of the theft of the same goods, they must not result in the person in whose favour they are made recovering more than the value of those goods.

4 A restitution order under section 147(1)(c) may not require payment of more than the value of the stolen goods.

5 Subsections (6) and (7) apply in relation to making to a restitution order under section 147(1)(d) in relation to any goods.

6 The court may make the restitution order only if satisfied that—

a the purchaser was acting in good faith when purchasing the goods, or

b the lender was acting in good faith when lending money on the security of the goods.

7 The restitution order may not require payment of more than—

a the amount which the purchaser paid for the purchase, or

b the amount owed to the lender in respect of the loan.

^I814150 Restitution orders: supplementary provision about appeals¶

1 Subsections (2) and (3) apply where a restitution order has been made in an offender's case against any person.

Order in respect of offence taken into consideration

2 Subsection (3) applies where the restitution order was made in respect of an offence taken into consideration by the court in determining sentence for one or more other offences of which the offender was convicted (each, a “main offence”).

3 The restitution order ceases to have effect if the offender successfully appeals against conviction of the main offence or, if more than one, all the main offences.

Initial period of suspension

4 Subsection (5) applies to a restitution order made by a magistrates' court, unless the court directs under subsection (6) that it is not to apply.

5 The restitution order does not take effect until there is no further possibility of the order being varied or set aside on appeal (disregarding any power to grant leave to appeal out of time).

6 A magistrates' court may direct that subsection (5) is not to apply to a restitution order if—

a the restitution order is made under section 147(1)(a) or (b), and

b the court is of the opinion that the title to the goods to be restored or, as the case may be, delivered or transferred under the order is not in dispute.

7 A restitution order is to be treated as an order for the restitution of property for the purposes of section 30 of the Criminal Appeal Act 1968 (effect of appeals on such orders).

8 See, in particular, subsection (1) of that section for provision about—

a the initial period of suspension of a restitution order made by the Crown Court, and

b the Crown Court's power to direct that the initial period of suspension is not to apply.

^I93151 Restitution orders: interpretation and application¶

1 In this Chapter, references to stealing are to be read in accordance with—

a section 1(1) of the Theft Act 1968 (read with the provisions of that Act relating to the construction of section 1(1)), and

b subsections (2) and (3).

(See also section 119(2) of the Consumer Credit Act 1974, which treats unreasonable refusal to deliver pawn as stealing for the purposes of this Chapter.)

2 In this Chapter, references to goods which have been stolen include references to goods which have been obtained—

a by blackmail, or

b by fraud (within the meaning of the Fraud Act 2006);

and references to “stealing” and “theft” are to be read accordingly.

3 In determining for the purposes of this Chapter whether goods have been stolen, it is immaterial whether the stealing occurred—

a before or after the Theft Act 1968, or the Fraud Act 2006, came into force, or

b in England and Wales or elsewhere,

provided that the stealing (if not an offence under either of those Acts) amounted to an offence where and when the goods were stolen.

4 In this Chapter, “goods”, except so far as the context otherwise requires, includes money and every other description of property (within the meaning of the Theft Act 1968) except land, and includes things severed from the land by stealing.

5 A restitution order may be made in respect of money owed by the Crown.

CHAPTER 4 Forfeiture, deprivation of property etc¶

^I1411152 Deprivation order¶

In this Code “deprivation order” means an order under this Chapter which—

a is made in respect of an offender for an offence, and

b deprives the offender of any rights in the property to which it relates.

^I112153 Deprivation order: availability¶

1 A deprivation order relating to any property to which subsection (2) applies is available to the court by or before which an offender is convicted of an offence.

2 This subsection applies to property which—

a has been lawfully seized from the offender, or

b was in the offender's possession or under the offender's control when—

i the offender was apprehended for the offence, or

ii a summons in respect of it was issued,

if subsection (3) or (5) applies.

3 This subsection applies if the court is satisfied that the property—

a has been used for the purpose of committing, or facilitating the commission of, any offence, or

b was intended by the offender to be used for that purpose.

4 For the purposes of subsection (3), facilitating the commission of an offence includes taking any steps after it has been committed for the purpose of—

a disposing of any property to which the offence relates, or

b avoiding apprehension or detection.

5 This subsection applies if—

^I1303^C13^C3^C65206 Community order: available requirements¶

1 A court may not make a community order which imposes a community order requirement that is not an available requirement.

2 A community order requirement is an available requirement unless a provision mentioned in column 3 of the entry for that requirement in the community order requirements table (see section 201) provides otherwise.

^I919^C137207 Community order: availability of particular requirements¶

Alcohol abstinence and monitoring requirement

1 An alcohol abstinence and monitoring requirement is not an available requirement unless regulations are in force under paragraph 25(7)(c) of Schedule 9 (prescribed arrangements for monitoring).

2 An alcohol abstinence and monitoring requirement imposing a requirement within paragraph 25(1)(a)(ii) of Schedule 9 (alcohol level to be kept below specified level) is not an available requirement unless regulations are in force under 25(7)(b) of that Schedule (prescribed alcohol level).

Attendance centre requirement

Exercise of power to impose requirements¶

^I573208 Community order: exercise of power to impose particular requirements¶

1 This section applies where a court makes a community order in respect of an offence.

Restrictions and obligations relating to imposing particular requirements

^C57^C116^C1042 The power to impose a particular community order requirement is subject to the provisions of the Part of Schedule 9 relating to requirements of that kind (see column 2 of the table in section 201).

Suitability of requirements

3 The particular community order requirement or community order requirements imposed by the order must, in the opinion of the court, be the most suitable for the offender.This is subject to subsection (10).

4 The pre-sentence report requirements (see section 30) apply to the court in relation to forming any opinion on whether a particular requirement or combination of requirements is suitable for the offender.

5 In forming its opinion for the purposes of subsection (3) on which requirement or combination of requirements is most suitable for the offender, the court may take into account any information about the offender which is before it.

Considerations of seriousness and punishment etc

6 The restrictions on liberty imposed by the order must be such as are in the opinion of the court commensurate with the seriousness of—

a the offence, or

b the combination of the offence and one or more offences associated with it.

This is subject to subsection (10).

8 The pre-sentence report requirements (see section 30) apply to the court in relation to forming that opinion.

9 The fact that, by virtue of subsection (6), particular restrictions on liberty may be imposed by a community order does not require the court to impose those restrictions.

^C57^C116^C10410 The order must include at least one community order requirement imposed for the purpose of punishment.

^C57^C116^C10411 Subsection (10) does not apply where—

a the court also imposes a fine, or

b there are exceptional circumstances relating to the offence or to the offender which—

i would make it unjust in all the circumstances for the court to impose a requirement for the purpose of punishment in the particular case, and

ii would make it unjust in all the circumstances for the court to impose a fine for the offence concerned.

Compatibility with other matters

^C57^C116^C10412 If the order imposes two or more different community order requirements, the court must, before making the order, consider whether, in the circumstances of the case, the requirements are compatible with each other.

^C67^C57^C116^C31^C10413 The court must ensure, so far as practicable, that any community order requirement imposed by the order is such as to avoid—

a any conflict with the offender's religious beliefs,

b any conflict with the requirements of any other court order to which the offender may be subject, and

c any interference with the times, if any, at which the offender normally—

i works, or

ii attends any educational establishment,

and satisfies any additional restrictions that the Secretary of State may specify in regulations.

^C57^C116^C10414 Regulations under subsection (13) are subject to the negative resolution procedure.

Making a community order¶

^I584^C41^C107^C84209 Community order to specify end date etc¶

1 A community order must specify a date (the “end date”) by which all the requirements in it must have been complied with.

2 The end date must not be more than 3 years after the date of the order.

3 If a community order imposes two or more different community order requirements—

a the order may also specify, for each of the requirements, a date by which the requirement must have been complied with;

b if it does so, the last of those dates must be the same as the end date.

4 Section 220 sets out the effect of the end date.

^I1154^C170^C162^C152210 Community order to specify offender's home local justice area¶

Obligations of responsible officer and offender¶

^I529^C171^C20^C111^C76213 The responsible officer¶

1 For the purposes of this Chapter, “the responsible officer”, in relation to an offender to whom a community order relates, means the person who is for the time being responsible for discharging the functions conferred by this Code on the responsible officer in accordance with arrangements made by the Secretary of State.

2 The responsible officer must be—

a an officer of a provider of probation services, or

b a person responsible for monitoring the offender in accordance with an electronic monitoring requirement imposed by the community order.

^I1067^C171^C20^C111^C76214 Obligations of responsible officer¶

1 This section applies where a community order is in force.

Functions of the responsible officer

2 The responsible officer must—

a make any arrangements that are necessary in connection with the requirements imposed by the order, and

b promote the offender's compliance with those requirements.

3 This is subject to paragraph 16(6) of Schedule 9 (in-patient treatment under mental health treatment requirement).

Exercise of functions by responsible officer

^C133^C364 The responsible officer must ensure, as far as practicable, that any instruction given by the responsible officer is such as to avoid—

a any conflict with the offender's religious beliefs,

b any conflict with the requirements of any other court order to which the offender may be subject, and

c any interference with the times, if any, at which the offender normally—

i works, or

ii attends any educational establishment,

and satisfies any additional restrictions that the Secretary of State may specify in regulations.

^I1384^C171^C20^C111^C76215 Duty of offender to keep in touch with responsible officer¶

1 This section applies where a community order is in force.

2 The offender must keep in touch with the responsible officer in accordance with any instructions the responsible officer may give the offender from time to time.

3 This obligation is enforceable as if it were a community order requirement of the community order.

^I281^C171^C20^C111^C76216 Duty of offender to obtain permission before changing residence¶

1 This section applies where a community order—

a is in force, and

b does not include a residence requirement imposed under paragraph 13 of Schedule 9.

2 The offender must not change residence except with permission given in accordance with this section by—

a the responsible officer, or

b a court.

3 This obligation has effect as if it were a community order requirement of the community order.

4 The appropriate court may, on an application made by the offender, give permission in a case in which the responsible officer has refused.For this purpose, “appropriate court” has the same meaning as in Schedule 10 (see paragraph 1 of that Schedule).

5 A court may also give permission in any proceedings before it under Schedule 10 (breach or amendment of order etc).

6 The grounds on which the responsible officer or court may refuse an application for permission are that, in the opinion of the officer or court, the change in residence—

a is likely to prevent the offender complying with a requirement imposed by the community order, or

b would hinder the offender's rehabilitation.

7 The responsible officer must refuse an application for permission if—

a the offender's present residence is in England or Wales, and

b the offender's proposed residence is outside England and Wales.

8 For cases in which a community order has to be amended because of permission given under this section, see paragraph 16 of Schedule 10 (amendment to reflect change in local justice area).

ii a drug rehabilitation requirement, or

iii an alcohol treatment requirement,

unless the offender expresses willingness to comply with the requirement as amended, and

c except with the consent of the offender, may not amend the order while an appeal against the order is pending.

4 For the purposes of subsection (3)(a)—

a a community order requirement of a kind within any entry in the table in section 201 is of the same kind as any other community requirement within that entry, and

b an electronic compliance monitoring requirement is a requirement of the same kind as any requirement within that table to which it relates.

5 If the court is of the opinion that the offender has without reasonable excuse breached a community order requirement of the order, the court may adjourn the hearing so that the court can deal with the case forthwith under paragraph 10 or 11 of Schedule 10 (powers of court to deal with offender on breach of requirement).

6 For some powers available where the court is of the opinion referred to in subsection (5) but does not deal with the case forthwith, see paragraph 9A of Schedule 10.

7 In this section—

“review hearing”, and
“progress report”,

have the same meanings as in section 217A.

2 If the court forms that opinion before a review hearing is held at the current review—

a it may order that no review hearing is to be held at the current review, and

b it may amend the community order so as to provide for each subsequent review to be held without a review hearing.

3 If a review hearing is held at the current review, the court may at the hearing amend the community order so as to provide for each subsequent review to be held without a review hearing.

4 If at a review held without a review hearing the court—

a considers the progress report, and

b forms the opinion that the offender’s progress under the order is no longer satisfactory,

it may require the offender to attend a hearing of the court at a specified time and place.

5 At a review hearing the court may amend the community order so as to vary the intervals specified under section 217A(2)(a).

6 The functions of a court under this section that are exercisable in relation to a review without a hearing are to be exercised—

a where the court is the Crown Court, by a judge of the court, and

b where the court is a magistrates’ court, by a justice of the peace.

7 In this section—

“review hearing”, and
“progress report”,

have the same meanings as in section 217A.

What a suspended sentence order is¶

^I1352^C60^C69286 Suspended sentence order¶

1 A suspended sentence order is an order providing that a sentence of imprisonment or detention in a young offender institution in respect of an offence is not to take effect unless—

a an activation event occurs, and

b a court having power to do so subsequently orders under paragraph 13 of Schedule 16 that the sentence is to take effect.

2 A suspended sentence order may also specify one or more available community requirements with which the offender must comply during the supervision period.

3 An activation event occurs if the offender—

a commits another offence in the United Kingdom during the operational period (whether or not punishable with imprisonment), or

b during the supervision period, contravenes any community requirement imposed by the order.

4 The community requirements are listed in column 1 of the community requirements table (see section 287).

5 Provision about each requirement is made by the provisions of Schedule 9 mentioned in the corresponding entry in column 2 of that table.

6 In this Code—

“suspended sentence order” has the meaning given by subsection (1);
“suspended sentence” means a sentence to which a suspended sentence order relates.

7 In this Code, references to a community requirement of, or imposed by, a suspended sentence order are to a requirement specified in the order under subsection (2).

3 If the suspended sentence order imposes two or more different community requirements, the court must, before making the order, consider whether, in the circumstances of the case, the requirements are compatible with each other.

4 The court must also ensure, so far as practicable, that any community requirement imposed by a suspended sentence order is such as to avoid—

a any conflict with the offender's religious beliefs,

b any conflict with any other court order to which the offender may be subject, and

c any interference with the times, if any, at which the offender normally—

i works, or

b the Court of Appeal,

is to be taken for the purposes of subsection (4)(b) to have been made by the Crown Court.

c may amend the supervision period only if the period as amended complies with section 288(4),

d may not amend the operational period, and

e except with the consent of the offender, may not amend the order while an appeal against the order is pending.

4 For the purposes of subsection (3)(a)—

a a community requirement of a kind within any entry in the table in section 287 is of the same kind as any other community requirement within that entry, and

b an electronic compliance monitoring requirement is a requirement of the same kind as any requirement within that table to which it relates.

5 If the court is of the opinion that the offender has without reasonable excuse breached a community requirement of the order, the court may adjourn the hearing so that it can deal with the case forthwith under paragraph 13 of Schedule 16 (powers of court to deal with offender on breach of requirement or subsequent conviction).

5A For some powers available where the court is of the opinion referred to in subsection (5) but does not deal with the case forthwith, see paragraph 9A of Schedule 16.

2 If the court forms that opinion before a review hearing is held at the current review—

a it may order that no review hearing is to be held at the current review, and

b it may amend the suspended sentence order so as to provide for each subsequent review to be held without a review hearing.

3 If a review hearing is held at the current review, the court may at the hearing amend the suspended sentence order so as to provide for each subsequent review to be held without a review hearing.

4 If at a review held without a review hearing the court—

a considers the progress report, and

b forms the opinion that the offender's progress under the order is no longer satisfactory,

it may require the offender to attend a hearing of the court at a specified time and place.

5 At a review hearing the court may amend the suspended sentence order so as to vary the intervals specified under section 293(2)(a) or 293A(2)(a).

1 Where a court passes a life sentence, it must make an order under this section.

2 The order must be a minimum term order unless the court is required to make a whole life order under subsection (3).

3 The order must be a whole life order if—

a the case is within subsection (3A) or (3B), and

b the court is of the opinion that, because of the seriousness of—

i the offence, or

ii the combination of the offence and one or more offences associated with it,

it should not make a minimum term order.

3A A case is within this subsection if the offender was aged 21 or over when the offence was committed.

3B A case is within this subsection if—

a the offence was committed on or after the day on which section 126 of the Police, Crime, Sentencing and Courts Act 2022 came into force, and

b the offender was aged 18 or over but under 21 when the offence was committed.

3C In a case within subsection (3B), the court may arrive at the opinion set out in subsection (3)(b) only if it considers that the seriousness of the offence, or combination of offences, is exceptionally high even by the standard of offences which would normally result in a whole life order in a case within subsection (3A).

4 A minimum term order is an order that the early release provisions (see section 324) are to apply to the offender as soon as the offender has served the part of the sentence which is specified in the order in accordance with section 322 or 323 (“the minimum term”).

5 A whole life order is an order that the early release provisions are not to apply to the offender.

^I757^C151322 Mandatory life sentences: further provision¶

1 This section applies where a court passes a life sentence for an offence the sentence for which is fixed by law.

Minimum term

2 If the court makes a minimum term order, the minimum term must be such part of the offender's sentence as the court considers appropriate taking into account—

a the seriousness of—

i the offence, or

ii the combination of the offence and any one or more offences associated with it, and

b the effect that the following would have if the court had sentenced the offender to a term of imprisonment—

i section 240ZA of the Criminal Justice Act 2003 (crediting periods of remand in custody);

ii and section 240A of that Act (crediting periods on bail subject to certain restrictions);

including the effect of any declaration that the court would have made under section 325 or 327 (specifying periods of remand on bail subject to certain restrictions or in custody pending extradition).

Determination of seriousness

3 In considering the seriousness of the offence, or of the combination of the offence and one or more offences associated with it, under—

a section 321(3) or (3C) (determining whether to make a whole life order), or

b subsection (2) (determining the minimum term),

the court must have regard to—

i the general principles set out in Schedule 21, and

ii any sentencing guidelines relating to offences in general which are relevant to the case and are not incompatible with the provisions of Schedule 21.

Duty to give reasons for minimum term order or whole life order

4 Where the court makes a minimum term order or a whole life order, in complying with the duty under section 52(2) to state its reasons for deciding on the order made, the court must in particular—

a state which of the starting points in Schedule 21 it has chosen and its reasons for doing so, and

b state its reasons for any departure from that starting point.

^I377^C151323 Minimum term order: other life sentences¶

1 This section applies where a court—

a passes a life sentence in circumstances in which the sentence is not fixed by law, and

b makes a minimum term order.

1A The starting point, in determining the minimum term, is the relevant portion of the notional determinate sentence.

1B The “notional determinate sentence”, in relation to a life sentence, is the custodial sentence that the court would have imposed if the court had not imposed the life sentence.

1C The “relevant portion” of the notional determinate sentence is—

a where that sentence is within section 247A(2A) of the Criminal Justice Act 2003 (terrorist prisoners not entitled to early release), the term that the court would have determined as the appropriate custodial term (within the meaning given by subsection (8) of that section);

b where that sentence is a sentence under section 252A, 254, 265, 266, 278 or 279 (and is not within paragraph (a)), two-thirds of the term that the court would have determined as the appropriate custodial term under that section;

c where that sentence is any other custodial sentence, two-thirds of the term of the sentence.

2 The minimum term must be the starting point adjusted as the court considers appropriate, taking into account—

a the seriousness of—

i the offence, or

ii the combination of the offence and one or more offences associated with it,

b ^F166... and

c the effect that the following would have if the court had sentenced the offender to a term of imprisonment—

i section 240ZA of the Criminal Justice Act 2003 (crediting periods of remand in custody);

ii section 240A of that Act (crediting periods of remand on bail subject to certain restrictions);

including the effect of any declaration which the court would have made under section 325 or 327 (specifying periods of remand on bail subject to certain restrictions or in custody pending extradition).

3 Subsection (2) is subject to the requirement that the minimum term in a serious terrorism case must be at least 14 years.This is subject to subsections (5) and (6).

4 A “serious terrorism case” is a case where, but for the fact that the court passes a life sentence, the court would be required by section 268B(2) or 282B(2) to impose a serious terrorism sentence (assuming for this purpose that the court is not of the opinion mentioned in section 268B(2) or 282B(2)).

5 The minimum term may be less than 14 years if the court is of the opinion that there are exceptional circumstances which—

a relate to the offence or to the offender, and

b justify a lesser period.

6 The minimum term may be less than 14 years if the court considers it appropriate, taking into account—

a the matters mentioned in subsection (2)(c), and

b the effect that the following would, if the court had sentenced the offender under section 268B(2) or 282B(2), have had in relation to the appropriate custodial term for that sentence—

i section 73 (reductions for guilty pleas), and

ii section 74 (reductions for assistance to the prosecution).

^I108^C151324 Life sentences: interpretation¶

In this Chapter—

“the early release provisions” means section 28(5) to (8) of the Crime (Sentences) Act 1997;

“minimum term order” and “minimum term” have the meanings given by section 321(4);
“whole life order” has the meaning given by section 321(5).

CHAPTER 9 Sentence administration¶

Declaration about time to count as served¶

^I412325 Time on bail under certain conditions: declaration by court¶

1 This section applies where—

a a court passes a determinate sentence on an offender in respect of an offence (see subsection (5)),

b the offender was remanded on bail by a court in course of or in connection with proceedings for the offence, or any related offence, and

c the offender's bail was subject to a qualifying curfew condition and an electronic monitoring condition (“the relevant conditions”).

2 The court must specify the credit period for the purposes of section 240A of the Criminal Justice Act 2003 (time remanded on bail to count towards time served) in relation to the sentence.

3 The credit period is calculated by taking the following steps.

Step 1
Add—
1. the day on which the offender's bail was first subject to the relevant conditions (and for this purpose a condition is not prevented from being a relevant condition by the fact that it does not apply for the whole of the day in question), and
2. the number of other days on which the offender's bail was subject to those conditions (but exclude the last of those days if the offender spends the last part of it in custody).
Step 2
Deduct the number of days on which the offender, whilst on bail subject to the relevant conditions, was also—
1. subject to any requirement imposed for the purpose of securing the electronic monitoring of the offender's compliance with a curfew requirement, or
2. on temporary release under rules made under section 47 of the Prison Act 1952.
Step 3
From the remainder, deduct the number of days during that remainder on which the offender has broken either or both of the relevant conditions.
Step 4
Divide the result by 2.
Step 5
If necessary, round up to the nearest whole number.

4 Where the court makes a declaration under subsection (2) it must state in open court—

a the number of days on which the offender was subject to the relevant conditions, and

b the number of days (if any) which it deducted under each of steps 2 and 3.

5 For the purposes of subsection (1)(a), a court passes a determinate sentence if it—

a sentences the offender to imprisonment for a term,

b passes a determinate sentence of detention in a young offender institution, ^F510...

c passes a determinate sentence of detention under section 250 , 252A or 254 (offenders aged under 18) , or

d makes a detention and training order.

6 For those purposes, a suspended sentence—

a is to be treated as a determinate sentence when it is activated under paragraph 13(1)(a) or (b) of Schedule 16, and

b is to be treated as being imposed by the order under which it is activated.

7 Section 240ZA of the Criminal Justice Act 2003 makes provision about time remanded in custody which is to count as time served.

^I299326 Section 325: interpretation¶

1 For the purposes of section 325, “sentence of imprisonment” does not include a committal—

a in default of payment of any sum of money, other than one adjudged to be paid on a conviction,

b for want of sufficient distress to satisfy any sum of money, or

c for failure to do or abstain from doing anything required to be done or left undone,

and references to sentencing an offender to imprisonment are to be read accordingly.This definition has effect in place of the definition of “sentence of imprisonment” in section 397 for those purposes.

2 For the purposes of section 325(1), another offence is “related” to the offence in respect of which the sentence is passed (the “sentenced offence”) if—

a the offender was charged with that other offence, and

b the charge for that other offence was founded on the same facts or evidence as the sentenced offence.

3 In section 325—

“curfew requirement” means a requirement (however described) to remain at one or more specified places for a specified number of hours in any given day, which—
1. is imposed by a court or the Secretary of State, and
2. arises as a result of a conviction;
“electronic monitoring condition” means any electronic monitoring requirements imposed under section 3(6ZAA) of the Bail Act 1976 for the purpose of securing the electronic monitoring of a person‘s compliance with a qualifying curfew condition;
“qualifying curfew condition” means a condition of bail which requires the person granted bail to remain at one or more specified places for a total of not less than 9 hours in any given day.

^I522327 Period in custody awaiting extradition: declaration by court¶

1 This section applies where a court imposes a fixed-term sentence on a person who—

a was tried for the offence in respect of which the sentence was imposed, or received the sentence—

i after having been extradited to the United Kingdom, and

ii without having first been restored or had an opportunity of leaving the United Kingdom, and

b was for any period kept in custody while awaiting extradition to the United Kingdom as mentioned in paragraph (a).

2 In this section “fixed term sentence” means—

a a sentence of imprisonment for a determinate term,

b a determinate sentence of detention in a young offender institution, ^F77...

c a determinate sentence of detention under section 250 , 252A or 254 , or

d a detention and training order.

3 The court must specify in open court the number of days for which the prisoner was kept in custody while awaiting extradition.

Recommendations¶

^I1381^C48328 Power of court to recommend licence conditions for adults sentenced to term of 12 months or more¶

1 This section applies where a court sentences an offender to—

a a term of imprisonment, or

b a term of detention in a young offender institution,

of 12 months or more in respect of any offence.

FOURTH GROUP OF PARTS

PART 11 Behaviour orders¶

CHAPTER 1 Criminal behaviour orders¶

^I722330 Criminal behaviour order¶

In this Code “criminal behaviour order” means an order which, for the purpose of preventing an offender from engaging in behaviour that is likely to cause harassment, alarm or distress to any person—

a prohibits the offender from doing anything described in the order;

b requires the offender to do anything described in the order.

^I196331 Power to make criminal behaviour order¶

1 This section applies where—

a a person is convicted of an offence, and

b the prosecution makes an application to the court for a criminal behaviour order to be made against the offender.

2 The court may make a criminal behaviour order against the offender if it—

a is satisfied that the offender has engaged in behaviour that caused or was likely to cause harassment, alarm or distress to any person, and

b considers that making the order will help in preventing the offender from engaging in such behaviour.

3 But the court may make a criminal behaviour order only if it—

a does so in addition to dealing with the offender for the offence, and

b does not make an order for absolute discharge under section 79 in respect of the offence.

4 Prohibitions and requirements in a criminal behaviour order must, so far as practicable, be such as to avoid—

a any interference with the times, if any, at which the offender normally works or attends school or any other educational establishment, and

b any conflict with the requirements of any other court order to which the offender may be subject.

5 The prosecution must find out the views of the local youth offending team before applying for a criminal behaviour order to be made if the offender will be under the age of 18 when the application is made.

6 In this section “local youth offending team” means the youth offending team in whose area it appears to the prosecution that the offender resides.

^I718332 Proceedings on an application for an order¶

1 For the purpose of deciding whether to make a criminal behaviour order the court may consider evidence led by the prosecution and evidence led by the offender.

2 It does not matter whether the evidence would have been admissible in the proceedings in which the offender was convicted.

3 The court may adjourn any proceedings on an application for a criminal behaviour order even after sentencing the offender.

4 If the offender does not appear for any adjourned proceedings the court may—

a further adjourn the proceedings,

b issue a warrant for the offender's arrest, or

c hear the proceedings in the offender's absence.

5 The court may not act under paragraph (b) of subsection (4) unless it is satisfied that the offender has had adequate notice of the time and place of the adjourned proceedings.

6 The court may not act under paragraph (c) of subsection (4) unless it is satisfied that the offender—

a has had adequate notice of the time and place of the adjourned proceedings, and

b has been informed that if the offender does not appear for those proceedings the court may hear the proceedings in the offender's absence.

7 Subsection (8) applies in relation to proceedings in which a criminal behaviour order is made against an offender who is under the age of 18.

8 In so far as the proceedings relate to the making of the order—

a section 49 of the Children and Young Persons Act 1933 (restrictions on reports of proceedings in which children and young persons are concerned) does not apply in respect of the offender;

b section 39 of that Act (power to prohibit publication of certain matters) does so apply.

^I1136333 Requirements included in orders¶

1 A criminal behaviour order that includes a requirement must specify the person who is to be responsible for supervising compliance with the requirement.The person may be an individual or an organisation.

2 Before including a requirement, the court must receive evidence about its suitability and enforceability from—

a the individual to be specified under subsection (1), if an individual is to be specified;

b an individual representing the organisation to be specified under subsection (1), if an organisation is to be specified.

3 Before including two or more requirements, the court must consider their compatibility with each other.

4 A person specified under subsection (1) must—

a make any necessary arrangements in connection with the requirements for which the person has responsibility (the “relevant requirements”);

b promote the offender's compliance with the relevant requirements;

c if the person considers that the offender—

i has complied with all the relevant requirements, or

ii has failed to comply with a relevant requirement,

inform the prosecution and the appropriate chief officer of police.

5 In subsection (4)(c) “the appropriate chief officer of police” means the chief officer of police for the police area in which it appears to the person specified under subsection (1) that the offender resides.

6 An offender subject to a requirement in a criminal behaviour order must—

a keep in touch with the person specified under subsection (1) in relation to that requirement, in accordance with any instructions given by that person from time to time;

b notify the person of any change of address.

These obligations have effect as requirements of the order.

^I1333334 Duration of order etc¶

1 A criminal behaviour order takes effect on the day it is made, subject to subsection (2).

2 If on the day a criminal behaviour order (“the new order”) is made the offender is subject to another criminal behaviour order (“the previous order”), the new order may be made so as to take effect on the day on which the previous order ceases to have effect.

3 A criminal behaviour order must specify the period (“the order period”) for which it has effect.

4 In the case of a criminal behaviour order made before the offender has reached the age of 18, the order period must be a fixed period of—

a not less than 1 year, and

b not more than 3 years.

5 In the case of a criminal behaviour order made after the offender has reached the age of 18, the order period must be—

a a fixed period of not less than 2 years, or

b an indefinite period (so that the order has effect until further order).

6 A criminal behaviour order may specify periods for which particular prohibitions or requirements have effect.

^I545335 Interim order¶

1 This section applies where a court adjourns the hearing of an application for a criminal behaviour order.

3 Section 331(1)(b), (3) and (5) and section 334(3) to (5) do not apply in relation to the making of an interim order.

4 Subject to that, the court has the same powers whether or not the criminal behaviour order is an interim order.

1 A criminal behaviour order may be varied or discharged by the court which made it on the application of—

a the offender, or

b the prosecution.

2 If an application by the offender under this section is dismissed, the offender may make no further application under this section without—

a the consent of the court which made the order, or

b the agreement of the prosecution.

3 If an application by the prosecution under this section is dismissed, the prosecution may make no further application under this section without—

a the consent of the court which made the order, or

b to extend the period for which a prohibition or requirement has effect.

5 Section 333 applies to additional requirements included under subsection (4) as it applies to requirements included in a new order.

the court may order the parent or guardian to pay a fine not exceeding £1,000.

3 For the purposes of this section—

FIFTH GROUP OF PARTS

PART 12 Miscellaneous provision about sentencing¶

CHAPTER 1 Costs, fines and other financial orders where offender aged under 18¶

Offender aged under 18: order for payment by parent or guardian¶

^I744^C25380 Order for parent or guardian to pay fine, costs, compensation or surcharge¶

1 Where any enactment provides that this section applies to an amount which, but for that enactment, the court would order the offender to pay, the court—

a must, or

b if the offender is aged 16 or over, may,

order that the amount is to be paid by the parent or guardian instead of by the offender himself or herself.

2 Subsection (1) does not apply if the court is satisfied that—

a the parent or guardian cannot be found, or

b that it would be unreasonable to make an order for payment, having regard to the circumstances of the case.

3 No order may be made under subsection (1) without giving the parent or guardian an opportunity of being heard.

4 But an order under subsection (1) may be made against a parent or guardian who, having been required to attend, has failed to do so.

5 A parent or guardian may appeal to the Crown Court against an order under subsection (1) made by a magistrates' court.

6 A parent or guardian may appeal to the Court of Appeal against an order under subsection (1) made by the Crown Court, as if the parent or guardian had been convicted on indictment and the order were a sentence passed on the parent's or guardian's conviction.

^I923381 Costs awarded against offender under 18: payment by parent or guardian¶

Where—

a but for this section, a court would impose costs in respect of an offence on an offender, and

section 380 applies to the amount of the costs awarded.

^I330382 Power to determine financial circumstances of offender's parent or guardian¶

1 For the purposes of any order under section 380, where—

a the parent or guardian of an offender aged under 18—

i has failed to comply with a financial circumstances order imposed by virtue of section 35(4), or

ii has otherwise failed to co-operate with the court in its inquiry into the parent's or guardian's financial circumstances, and

b the court considers that it has insufficient information to make a proper determination of the parent's or guardian's financial circumstances,

the court may make such determination as it thinks fit.

2 Subsections (3) to (5) apply where a court has—

a made an order under section 380 in respect of a parent or guardian of an offender to pay the amount of a fine, and

b in fixing the amount of the fine, determined the financial circumstances of the parent or guardian under subsection (1).

3 If on subsequently inquiring into the financial circumstances of the parent or guardian the court is satisfied that, had it had the results of that inquiry when sentencing the offender, it—

a would have fixed a smaller amount, or

b would not have fined the offender,

it may remit the whole or part of the fine.

4 Where under subsection (3) the court remits the whole or part of the fine after a term of—

a imprisonment, or

b detention under section 108 of the Powers of Criminal Courts (Sentencing) Act 2000,

has been fixed under section 82(5) of the Magistrates' Courts Act 1980 (magistrates' powers in relation to default) in respect of the amount ordered to be paid under section 380, the court must reduce the term by the corresponding proportion.

5 In calculating any reduction required by subsection (4), any fraction of a day is to be ignored.

3 A case so referred must, if possible, be heard by the judge who passed the sentence to which the referral relates.

4 If the court is satisfied that the offender knowingly failed to give the assistance it may substitute for the original sentence a sentence that is—

i the prosecutor, and

ii the offender;

c section 52(2) or, as the case may be, 322(4) does not apply to the extent that the explanation would disclose that the substitute sentence is a discounted sentence.

Introductory¶

^I5021This Part of this Schedule applies where a youth offender panel refers an offender back to court under Chapter 1 of Part 6 (referral orders).

Mode of referral back to court¶

^I3182To make the referral, the panel must send a report to the appropriate court explaining why the offender is being referred back to court.

Bringing the offender before the court¶

^I6343

1 Where the appropriate court receives a report under paragraph 2, the court must cause the offender to appear before it.

2 For that purpose, a justice acting in the same local justice area as the appropriate court may—

a issue a summons requiring the offender to appear before the appropriate court at the place and time specified in the summons, or

b if the report is substantiated on oath, issue a warrant for the offender's arrest which requires the offender to be brought before the appropriate court.

Detention and remand of arrested offender¶

^I654

1 This paragraph applies where an offender—

a is arrested under a warrant issued under paragraph 3(2), and

b cannot immediately be brought before the appropriate court.

2 The person in whose custody the offender is—

a may arrange for the offender to be detained in a place of safety for a period of not more than 72 hours from the time of the arrest, and

b must, within that period, bring the offender before a youth court (or, if the offender is aged 18 or over, a magistrates' court other than a youth court).

3 A person detained in accordance with arrangements under sub-paragraph (2)(a) is deemed to be lawfully detained.

^I8465

1 This paragraph applies where the court before which the offender is brought under paragraph 4(2) (“the alternative court”) is not the appropriate court.

4 If the offender is aged under 18, any power conferred by that section to remand the offender in custody includes a power to remand the offender to accommodation provided by or on behalf of a local authority.

5 If a court remands the offender to accommodation provided by or on behalf of a local authority, it must designate, as the authority which is to receive the offender, the local authority for the area in which it appears to the court that the offender resides or will reside.

Powers of court on referral back¶

^I6446Paragraphs 7 to 10 apply where the offender was referred back to court under—

a section 92(3) (offender's failure to attend panel meeting);

b section 98(3) (no prospect of agreement on youth offender contract);

c section 98(4) (unreasonable failure to sign record of agreement);

d section 100(3) (breach of contract);

f section 100(8) (change of circumstances);

g section 101(5) (final meeting: order not discharged);

h section 102(2) (panel requesting revocation of order).

Power of court where it upholds panel's decision¶

^I8267

1 Sub-paragraph (2) applies where the appropriate court is satisfied, for any decision of the youth offender panel which resulted in the referral back to court, that—

a so far as the decision relied on any finding of fact by the youth offender panel, the panel was entitled to make that finding in the circumstances, and

b so far as the decision involved any exercise of discretion by the youth offender panel, the panel reasonably exercised that discretion in the circumstances.

2 The court may revoke the referral order (or each of the referral orders).

3 Revocation of an order under sub-paragraph (2) has the effect of revoking any related order under paragraph 9(2), 12 or 15 (extension of compliance period).

4 Where an order is revoked under sub-paragraph (2) or by virtue of sub-paragraph (3), the appropriate court may re-sentence the offender for the offence in respect of which the revoked order was made (but assuming that a referral order is not available).

5 In re-sentencing the offender under sub-paragraph (4), the appropriate court must take into account—

a the circumstances of the offender's referral back to the court, and

b where a youth offender contract has taken effect between the offender and the panel, the extent of the offender's compliance with the contract.

6 A power under sub-paragraph (2) or (4)—

a may not be exercised unless the offender is before the appropriate court, and

b is not affected by the expiry of the compliance period (whether before or after the offender was referred back to court), in a case where a youth offender contract has taken effect.

Appeal¶

^I7798An offender re-sentenced under paragraph 7(4) for an offence may appeal to the Crown Court against the sentence.

Power of court to impose fine or extend period for which contract has effect¶

ii section 100(3) (breach of contract), or

iii section 101(5) (final meeting: order not discharged),

b the offender is before the appropriate court,

c the appropriate court is satisfied that the offender has failed without reasonable excuse to comply with a youth offender contract which has taken effect between the offender and a youth offender panel, and

d the appropriate court does not revoke the order under paragraph 7.

2 The appropriate court may make an order extending the length of the compliance period, but—

a not to more than 12 months, and

b not if the compliance period has already expired.

3 The court may order the offender to pay a fine of an amount not exceeding £2,500.

4 Expiry of the compliance period (whether before or after the offender was referred back to court) does not affect the power to impose a fine under sub-paragraph (3).

5 A fine imposed under sub-paragraph (3) is to be treated, for the purposes of any enactment, as being a sum adjudged to be paid by a conviction.

Consequences of court not revoking referral order or orders¶

^I72810

1 This paragraph applies where, having considered the matters in sub-paragraph (1) of paragraph 7, the appropriate court does not revoke the referral order (or orders) to which the offender is subject.

2 The offender remains subject to the referral order (or orders) in all respects as if the referral back to court had not occurred (subject to any order under paragraph 9(2) (extension of compliance period)).

3 But if—

a a youth offender contract has taken effect in pursuance of the referral order (or orders),

b the compliance period has expired, and

c the referral order (or each of the referral orders) has not been revoked,

the court must make an order declaring that the referral order (or each of the referral orders) is discharged.

4 An order under sub-paragraph (3) has the effect of discharging any related order under paragraph 9(2), 12 or 15 (extension of compliance period).

Exception where court satisfied as to completion of contract¶

^I9211

1 This paragraph applies where—

a the reference back to court was made under section 101(5) (final meeting: order not discharged), and

b the court decides (contrary to the decision of the panel) that the offender's compliance with the youth offender contract has, or will by the end of the compliance period have, been such as to justify the conclusion that the offender has, or will have, satisfactorily completed the youth offender contract.

2 The court must make an order declaring that the referral order (or each of the referral orders) is discharged.

3 An order under sub-paragraph (2) has the effect of discharging any related order under paragraph 9(2), 12 or 15 (extension of compliance period).

Referral back for extension of compliance period¶

^I41412

1 This paragraph applies where—

a the reference back to court was made under section 103(2) (request for extension of compliance period),

b the youth offender contract has taken effect and the compliance period has not expired, and

c the offender is before the appropriate court.

2 If it appears to the appropriate court that it would be in the interests of justice to do so, having regard to circumstances which have arisen since the contract took effect, it may make an order extending the length of the compliance period but—

a not by more than 3 months, and

b not to more than 12 months.

3 When deciding whether to make an order under sub-paragraph (2), the court must take into account the extent of the offender's compliance with the contract.

b the remand must require the offender to be brought before the court at that time and place.

5 Where the court adjourns the hearing under sub-paragraph (2), but does not remand the offender—

a it may fix the time and place at which the hearing is to be resumed, but

b if it does not do so, it must not resume the hearing unless it is satisfied that the following persons have had adequate notice of the time and place for the resumed hearing—

i the offender,

ii if the offender is aged under 14, a parent or guardian of the offender, and

iii a member of the specified youth offending team.

6 The powers of a magistrates' court under this paragraph may be exercised by a single justice of the peace, notwithstanding anything in the Magistrates' Courts Act 1980.

7 This paragraph—

a applies to any hearing in proceedings under this Part of this Schedule in place of section 10 of the Magistrates' Courts Act 1980 (adjournment of trial) where that section would otherwise apply, but

b is not to be taken to affect the application of that section to hearings of any other description.

^I7415

1 This paragraph applies if the court dealing with the offender for the new offence is a youth court or other magistrates' court.

2 The court must not deal with the offender for the new offence, or any offence connected with it, by making an order of the kind mentioned in section 89(3) (orders not available where court makes referral order).

3 In respect of any offence connected with the new offence, the court must make—

a an order under paragraph 15, or

b an order for absolute discharge.

Further convictions: power of any court to revoke referral orders¶

^I131717

1 This paragraph applies where, in dealing with the offender for the new offence, the court makes an order other than—

a an order under paragraph 15, or

b an order for absolute discharge or an order for conditional discharge.

2 If it appears to the court to be in the interests of justice to do so, the court—

a may revoke the referral order (or any one or more of the referral orders), and

b if it revokes a referral order, may re-sentence the offender for the offence in respect of which the revoked order was made (but assuming that a referral order is not available).

3 Revocation of a referral order under sub-paragraph (2) has the effect of revoking any related order under paragraph 9(2), 12 or 15 (extension of compliance period).

4 When re-sentencing the offender under sub-paragraph (2)(b), if a youth offender contract has taken effect between the offender and the panel, the court must take into account the extent of the offender's compliance with the contract.

^I111114Where the youth rehabilitation order was made or amended by the Crown Court, the Crown Court in Northern Ireland may direct that any proceedings in Northern Ireland in relation to the order be before a court of summary jurisdiction.

Effect of the youth rehabilitation order in Northern Ireland¶

^I3715

1 The youth rehabilitation order is to be treated in Northern Ireland as if it were a corresponding order and the legislation which has effect in Northern Ireland in relation to such orders applies accordingly.

2 Sub-paragraph (1) is subject to the following provisions of this Part of this Schedule.

Powers of the home court in respect of the youth rehabilitation order¶

^I96916

1 The home court may exercise any relevant local power in relation to the youth rehabilitation order, subject to the following restrictions.

2 A “relevant local power” means a power which the home court could exercise in relation to a corresponding order by virtue of the legislation that applies in Northern Ireland in relation to such orders.

3 The home court may not discharge or revoke the order.

4 But that does not prevent the home court from exercising a power to revoke the order where—

a the offender has been convicted of a further offence, and

b the court has imposed a custodial sentence (and section 222(1) (meaning of “custodial sentence”) does not apply for this purpose).

5 The home court may not deal with the offender for the offence in respect of which the youth rehabilitation order was made.

6 If the youth rehabilitation order imposes a curfew requirement, the home court may not vary the order so as to specify curfew periods (within the meaning of paragraph 18 of Schedule 6) that could not be specified by a court in England and Wales if, applying the relevant assumptions, it were imposing the requirement.

7 For that purpose, “the relevant assumptions” are that the offender—

a has just been convicted by or before the court in England and Wales of the offence in respect of which the youth rehabilitation order was made, but

b is the same age as when in fact convicted of the offence.

^I90217

1 The home court may require the offender to appear before the relevant court in England and Wales if sub-paragraph (2) or (3) applies.

2 This sub-paragraph applies where it appears to the home court upon a complaint being made to a lay magistrate in Northern Ireland that the offender has breached one or more requirements of the order.

3 This sub-paragraph applies where it appears to the home court, on the application of the offender or the relevant officer, that it would be in the interests of justice for any of the following powers to be exercised—

a a power conferred by Part 3 of Schedule 7 (revocation of order with or without re-sentencing);

b a power conferred by paragraph 15 of that Schedule (amendment by appropriate court).

Breach of requirement: certificate of home court¶

^I41818

1 Where the home court requires the offender to appear before the relevant court in England and Wales by virtue of paragraph 17(2) (breach of a requirement of the order) the home court must send the court in England and Wales—

a a certificate certifying that the offender has breached a requirement of the order specified in the certificate, and

b such other particulars of the case as may be desirable.

2 A certificate under sub-paragraph (1)(a) purporting to be signed by the clerk of the home court (or, if the home court is the Crown Court in Northern Ireland, by the chief clerk) is admissible as evidence of the breach before the relevant court in England or Wales.

Powers of court in England or Wales where offender required to appear under paragraph 17¶

^I126319

1 This paragraph applies where under paragraph 17 the home court requires the offender to appear before the relevant court in England and Wales.

2 The relevant court may issue a warrant for the offender's arrest.

3 The relevant court may exercise any power which it could exercise in respect of the youth rehabilitation order if the offender resided in England or Wales.This is subject to paragraph 20.

4 Any enactment relating to the exercise of such powers has effect accordingly, with any reference in it to the responsible officer being read as a reference to the relevant officer.

^I87620

1 This paragraph applies where—

a the relevant court in England and Wales is exercising a power to amend a youth rehabilitation order by virtue of paragraph 19(3), and

b the offender resides in Northern Ireland.

2 The court may not amend the youth rehabilitation order unless, in relation to any requirement that it proposes to impose, it appears to the court that suitable arrangements for the offender's supervision can be made by—

a the Probation Board for Northern Ireland, or

b any other designated body.

3 The court may not impose either of the following requirements—

a a local authority residence requirement;

b a fostering requirement.

4 The court may not amend the youth rehabilitation order to impose a locally based requirement unless it appears to the court that—

a arrangements exist for persons to comply with such a requirement in Northern Ireland, and

b provision can be made for the offender to comply with the requirement under those arrangements.

For the purposes of this paragraph, “locally based requirement” has the same meaning as it has for the purposes of paragraph 5.

5 The court may not—

a impose a requirement, or

b amend a requirement imposed by the youth rehabilitation order,

so that it is imposed in respect of more hours, days or months than the maximum number of hours, days or months in respect of which a court in Northern Ireland could impose a similar requirement in a corresponding order.

6 The following apply in relation to the amendment of the youth rehabilitation order by virtue of paragraph 19(3) as they apply in relation to the amendment of an order in accordance with Part 1 of this Schedule—

a paragraph 7,

b paragraphs 8 to 17.

Community orders and suspended sentence orders: requirements

Sections 200 and 286

PART 1 Unpaid work requirement¶

Requirement and obligation of offender¶

^I1108^C241

^C1551 In this Code “unpaid work requirement”, in relation to a relevant order, means a requirement that the offender must perform unpaid work in accordance with the instructions of the responsible officer as to—

a the work to be performed, and

b the times, during a period of 12 months, at which the offender is to perform it.

2 Sub-paragraph (1)(b) is subject to—

a paragraph 21 of Schedule 10 (community order: power to extend unpaid work requirement);

b paragraph 27 of Schedule 16 (suspended sentence order: extension of unpaid work requirement).

Number of hours of unpaid work to be specified in order¶

^I843^C242

^C991 The number of hours which a person may be required to work under an unpaid work requirement—

a must be specified in the relevant order, and

b must, in aggregate, be—

i not less than 40, and

ii not more than 300.

2 Sub-paragraph (1)(b)(i) is subject to paragraph 13(4) of Schedule 10 (breach of community order: power to impose unpaid work requirement).

3 Sub-paragraph (4) applies where the court—

a makes relevant orders in respect of two or more offences of which the offender is convicted on the same occasion, and

b includes unpaid work requirements in each of them.

4 The court may direct that the hours of work specified in any of those requirements is to be—

a concurrent with, or

b additional to,

those specified in any other of those orders.But the total number of hours which are not concurrent must not exceed the maximum number (see sub-paragraph (1)(b)(ii)).

Restriction on imposing unpaid work requirement¶

^I877^C24^C1223

1 A court may not include an unpaid work requirement in a relevant order unless it is satisfied—

a that the offender is a suitable person to perform work under such a requirement, and

b that provision for the offender to work under such a requirement can be made under the arrangements for persons to perform work under such a requirement which exist in the offender's home local justice area.

2 In making a decision under sub-paragraph (1)(a), the court must (if it thinks necessary) hear an officer of a provider of probation services.

Reduction in number of hours of work required by unpaid work requirement¶

1 This paragraph applies where—

a a relevant order is in force,

b the order includes an unpaid work requirement,

c the offender has performed the qualifying amount of work in relation to the requirement,

d the responsible officer is of the view that the offender did not, during the period starting when the order was made and ending when the offender had first performed the qualifying amount of work (“the relevant period”), at any time fail without reasonable excuse to attend for work as required by the officer’s instructions, and

e during the relevant period the responsible officer did not at any time ask the offender to leave a place of work on the grounds that the offender was not performing work as required by the officer’s instructions.

2 For the purposes of this paragraph “the qualifying amount of work”, in relation to an unpaid work requirement, is 25 per cent of the number of hours of work specified in the relevant order (including a fraction of an hour where necessary).

3 Where this paragraph applies, the number of hours that the offender may be required to work under the requirement is reduced by half an hour for every credit earning hour worked.

4 For the purposes of sub-paragraph (3), the offender works a credit earning hour where the offender performs a whole hour of work under the requirement at any time after the offender has performed the qualifying amount of work in relation to the requirement.

5 But if—

a the responsible officer is of the view that the offender fails without reasonable excuse to attend for work as required by the officer’s instructions, or

b the responsible officer asks the offender to leave a place of work on the grounds that the offender is not performing work as required by the officer’s instructions,

any work performed by the offender at any time after that failure to attend or request to leave is not to count as all or part of a credit earning hour.

6 Where a relevant order is amended under paragraph 10(5)(b) or 11(2)(b) of Schedule 10, or under paragraph 13(1)(d)(i) of Schedule 16, so as to require the offender to perform additional hours of unpaid work—

a the requirement to perform those additional hours is to be treated, for the purposes of this paragraph, as imposed under an additional unpaid work requirement that is separate from any unpaid work requirement included in the order before its amendment, and

b sub-paragraph (3) does not apply in relation to that additional unpaid work requirement.

7 The Secretary of State may by regulations amend this paragraph so as to—

a vary the percentage for the time being specified in sub-paragraph (2);

b vary the amount for the time being specified in sub-paragraph (3) as the amount by which the number of hours required to be worked is reduced for each hour worked by the offender;

c omit sub-paragraph (1)(d) or (e) or (5);

d provide for restrictions, conditions or exclusions in relation to the application of the paragraph or the reduction in hours required to be worked that results from its application;

e vary or remove any restrictions, conditions or exclusions provided for by virtue of paragraph (d).

^I43218A certificate by a court under section 232A of the Criminal Justice Act 2003 that a person was convicted in England and Wales of an offence listed in Schedule 15B to that Act is evidence, for the purposes of section 267, 273, 279 or 283, of the fact certified by it.

Restriction on imposing custodial sentence without legal representation¶

^I27919In relation to a pre-commencement case (within the meaning of the Legal Aid, Sentencing and Punishment of Offenders Act 2012 (Consequential, Transitional and Saving Provisions) Regulations 2013 (S.I. 2013/534)), the reference in section 226(7) to representation under Part 1 of the Legal Aid, Sentencing and Punishment of Offenders Act 2012 includes representation referred to in section 83(3)(a) of the Powers of Criminal Courts (Sentencing) Act 2000 as it had effect immediately before 1 April 2013 (representation funded by the Legal Services Commission as part of the Criminal Defence Service).

PART 5 Miscellaneous¶

Validity of provision deriving from secondary legislation¶

^I98020Any question as to the validity of paragraph 30 of Schedule 25, which derives from paragraphs 7 and 9 of Schedule 2 to the Armed Forces Act 2006 (Transitional Provisions etc) Order 2009 (S.I. 2009/1059), is to be determined as if that paragraph were contained in a statutory instrument made under the powers under which that order was made.

Powers to make consequential etc provision¶

^I32321On and after the commencement date, any power (however expressed) that was exercisable immediately before that date—

a to make consequential, supplementary or incidental provision in relation to a provision that is restated in the Sentencing Code (a “restated provision”), or

b to make transitional, transitory or saving provision in relation to a restated provision,

is exercisable instead in relation to the corresponding provision of the Code.

Exercise of powers in relation to pre-commencement offences¶

^I73822

1 The following powers may, despite section 2, be exercised in relation to an offence of which the offender is convicted before the commencement date (a “pre-commencement offence”) as well as in relation to an offence of which the offender is convicted on or after that day—

a the power in section 91(5) (to make regulations specifying requirements for persons appointed as members of a youth offender panel);

b the power in section 194 (to make regulations about court reviews of youth rehabilitation orders);

c the power in section 217 (to make regulations about court reviews of community orders);

d the power in section 248(1)(f) (to make regulations specifying accommodation as “youth detention accommodation”);

e the power in section 394 (to make rules relating to community orders and suspended sentence orders);

f the power in section 395 (to issue a code of practice about the processing of data from electronic monitoring).

2 Anything done under a power referred to in a paragraph of sub-paragraph (1) in relation to a pre-commencement offence has effect as if done under the provision repealed by this Act that corresponds to the provision mentioned in that paragraph.

Exercise of powers to amend amounts¶

^I39423

1 A reference in sub-paragraph (4) of paragraph 5 or 7 of Schedule 23 to regulations previously made under that paragraph includes a reference to an order previously made under the corresponding provision of section 143 of the Magistrates' Courts Act 1980.

2 Sub-paragraph (3) applies to regulations under paragraph 5, 6, 7, 10, 14 or 17 of Schedule 23 to amend an amount specified in a provision of the Sentencing Code so as to specify a different amount that, immediately before 1 December 2020, is specified in the corresponding provision repealed by this Act by virtue of an order made under a provision repealed by this Act.

3 The regulations are to be treated for the purposes of that paragraph of Schedule 23 as being made and coming into force on the dates on which the order was made and came into force.

Saving for list of offences applied for other purposes¶

^I10124The repeal by Schedule 28 of section 224 of the Criminal Justice Act 2003 does not affect Schedule 15 to that Act (certain specified offences) so far as it continues to apply for any purpose on and after the commencement date.

Enforcement of High Court and Court of Appeal fines¶

^I56925Anything done before the commencement date under a provision of sections 139 and 140 of the Powers of Criminal Courts (Sentencing) Act 2000 as they apply by virtue of subsection (3) of section 140 of the Senior Courts Act 1981 (enforcement of fines and forfeited recognizances) has effect on and after that date as if done under a provision of sections 130 to 132 of the Sentencing Code as they apply by virtue of that subsection.

Breach of restraining order made on acquittal¶

^I87026In relation to an offence under section 5A of the Protection from Harassment Act 1997 committed before 12 March 2015, the reference to a fine in paragraph (b) of subsection (2E) of that section (inserted by paragraph 144 of Schedule 24) is to be read as a reference to a fine not exceeding the statutory maximum.

Commencement and alteration of Crown Court sentence: legal aid¶

^I12627

1 In paragraph (b) of the definition of “sentence” in sections 384(4) and 385(8), the reference to an order relating to a requirement to make a payment under regulations under section 23 or 24 of the Legal Aid, Sentencing and Punishment of Offenders Act 2012 includes, in relation to an old case, a reference to an order under section 17(2) of the Access to Justice Act 1999.

2 For this purpose “old case” means a pre-commencement case within the meaning of the Legal Aid, Sentencing and Punishment of Offenders Act 2012 (Consequential, Transitional and Saving Provisions) Regulations 2013 (S.I. 2013/534) (see regulation 2 of those regulations).
