This is the original version (as it was originally enacted).

4(1)If at any time while a supervised attendance order is in force in respect of any offender it appears to the appropriate court, on information from the supervising officer, that that offender has failed to comply with any of the requirements of paragraph 3 above or of the order (including any failure satisfactorily to carry out any instructions which he has been given by the supervising officer under the order), the court may issue a warrant for the arrest of that offender, or may, if it thinks fit, instead of issuing a warrant in the first instance issue a citation requiring the offender to appear before that court at such time as may be specified in the citation.

(2)If it is proved to the satisfaction of the court before which an offender is brought or appears in pursuance of sub-paragraph (1) above that he has failed without reasonable excuse to comply with any of the requirements of paragraph 3 above or of the order (including any failure satisfactorily to carry out any instructions which he has been given by the supervising officer under the order) the court may—

(a)revoke the order and impose such period of imprisonment not exceeding—

(i)in the case of a sheriff court, three months; and

(ii)in the case of a district court, 60 days,

as the court considers appropriate; or

(b)subject to section 235 of this Act and paragraph 2(2) above, vary the number of hours specified in the order.

(3)The evidence of one witness shall, for the purposes of sub-paragraph (2) above, be sufficient evidence.
