45.—(1) Where a registered club or any official of a registered club is convicted of an offence under a provision of this Order specified in column 1 of Schedule 6, the penalty points to be taken into account on that occasion are (subject to paragraph (2))—
(a)any that are to be attributed to the offence or offences in respect of which the club or, as the case may be, the official is convicted, and
(b)any that were on a previous occasion ordered to be endorsed on the certificate of registration issued to the registered club;
and where the penalty points so taken into account number 10 or more, the court shall, unless satisfied that by reason of extenuating circumstances in connection with the offence or offences the registration of the club ought not to be cancelled, cancel the registration of the club.
(2) If any of the offences was committed more than 3 years before another, the penalty in respect of that offence shall not be added to those in respect of the other.
(3) Where the court refuses to cancel the registration of a club it shall specify in its order the reasons for its refusal.
