Section 151: Dealing with person for other offences: other category 2 territories

432.This section applies where a person is extradited to the United Kingdom from a category 2 territory not covered by section 150 above.

433.The provisions of this section are similar to those in section 150. The differences are that the person may be dealt with for an offence disclosed by the information provided to the category 2 territory even if it is not a lesser offence. In addition, there is no 45-day protected period. Instead the person must either have returned to the territory from which he was extradited or been given the opportunity to leave the United Kingdom (Subsection (4)).
