67 Computation of sentences of imprisonment passed in England and Wales. E+W

(1) The length of any sentence of imprisonment imposed on an offender by a court shall be treated as reduced by any [F9 relevant period, but where he][F10 (a)] was previously subject to a probation order, [F11 a community service order], an order for conditional discharge or a suspended sentence in respect of that offence, any such period falling before the order was made or suspended sentence passed shall be disregarded for the purposes of this section.

(b) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . F12

[F13 (1A) In subsection (1) above “relevant period” means—

(a) any period during which the offender was in police detention in connection with the offence for which the sentence was passed; or

(b) any period during which he was in custody—

(i) by reason only of having been committed to custody by an order of a court made in connection with any proceedings relating to that sentence or the offence for which it was passed or any proceedings from which those proceedings arose; or

(ii) by reason of his having been so committed and having been concurrently detained otherwise than by order of a court.][F14 or—

(c) any period during which, in connection with the offence for which the sentence was passed, he was [F15 remanded [F16 or committed] to local authority accommodation] by virtue of an order under section 23 of the Children and Young Persons Act 1969 [F17 or section 37 of the Magistrates’ Courts Act 1980] and in accommodation provided for the purpose of restricting liberty.]

(2) For the purposes of this section a suspended sentence shall be treated as a sentence of imprisonment when it takes effect under [F18 section 119 of the Powers of Criminal Courts (Sentencing) Act 2000] and as being imposed by the order under which it takes effect.

[F19 (2A) Where a person is sentenced to imprisonment with an order under section 47(1) of the Criminal Law Act 1977 (sentences partly suspended), subsection (1) above—

(a) operates to reduce the part of the sentence required to be served in prison;

(b) he has been released from prison after serving part of his sentence; and

the restored part shall for the purposes of this section be treated as a sentence of imprisonment imposed by the order restoring it (but shall not be reduced by any period spent in custody by the offender before the original sentence was passed).]

(3) No period of custody, other than a period which would have been taken into account before the commencement of this Act under section 17(2) of the Criminal Justice Administration Act 1962 (duration of sentence) for the purpose of reducing a term of imprisonment, shall be taken into account for the like purpose under this section unless it falls after the commencement of this Act.

(4) Any reference in this Act or any other enactment (whether passed before or after the commencement of this Act) to the length of any sentence of imprisonment shall, unless the context otherwise requires, be construed as a reference to the sentence pronounced by the court and not the sentence as reduced by this section.

(b) to determinate sentences of detention passed under [F18 section 91 of the Powers of Criminal Courts (Sentencing) Act 2000](sentences for serious indictable offences),
