(3)Regulations under subsection (1) may provide, in relation to any offence or description of offence prescribed in them, that a person is to be treated, for the purposes of such provisions of this Act as may be specified in the regulations, as having been convicted of the offence only if the person—

(a)accumulates such number of separate convictions for the offence, or

(b)is convicted of committing the offence on such number of separate occasions,

130Effect of appeal against conviction for relevant or foreign offenceS

(4)A conviction is subject to appeal for the purposes of subsection (1) if—
