In contrast, in the case of a juvenile – <Emphasis>Subsection (<CitationSubRef id="c00171" URI="http://www.legislation.gov.uk/id/ukpga/2000/43/section/30/4" CitationRef="c00159" SectionRef="section-30-4">4</CitationSubRef>)</Emphasis> of Section 29 – the court may make an order only if they deem it likely that the juvenile will re-offend against children.  An adult must therefore be disqualified unless the court is satisfied that he is unlikely to re-offend, whereas a court must assume that a juvenile will not re-offend, unless they are satisfied that there is sufficient evidence to the contrary, in which case it is required to disqualify the juvenile.</Text>
