(a)it imposes a fine on the defendant, or

(b)it makes an order falling within subsection (3).

(a)an order involving payment by the defendant, other than [F1an order under [F2section 46 of the Sentencing Code] (criminal courts charge) or] [F3a priority order];

(b)an order under section 27 of the Misuse of Drugs Act 1971 (c. 38) (forfeiture orders);

(d)an order under section 23 [F5or 23A] of the Terrorism Act 2000 (c. 11) (forfeiture orders).

[F6(3A)In this section “priority order” means any of the following—

(a)a compensation order under [F7Chapter 2 of Part 7 of the Sentencing Code];

(b)an order requiring payment of a surcharge under [F8section 42 of the Sentencing Code];

(6)In such a case the court must direct that so much of the [F11amount payable under the priority order (or orders)] as it specifies is to be paid out of any sums recovered under the confiscation order; and the amount it specifies must be the amount it believes will not be recoverable because of the insufficiency of the person’s means.
