12D Duty of court to state in certain cases that requirement in place of custodial sentence.

1

Where—

a

in pursuance of section 12A(3)(a) of this Act a court includes a requirement in a supervision order directing the supervised person to participate in specified activities; and

b

it would have imposed a custodial sentence if it had not made a supervision order including such a requirement,

it shall state in open court—

i

that it is making the order instead of a custodial sentence;

ii

that it is satisfied that—

a

the offender has a history of failure to respond to non-custodial penalties and is unable or unwilling to respond to any non-custodial penalty other than a supervision order including such a requirement; or

b

only a supervision order including such a requirement or a custodial sentence would be adequate to protect the public from serious harm from him; or

c

the offence for which he has been convicted or found guilty was so serious that a non-custodial sentence for it other than a supervision order including such a requirement could not be justified; and

iii

why it is so satisfied.

2

Where the Crown Court makes such a statement, it shall certify in the supervision order that it has made such a statement.

3

Where a magistrates’ court makes such a statement, it shall certify in the supervision order that it has made such a statement and shall cause the statement to be entered in the register.
