the programme which the court proposes to specify has been recommended to the court by—

i

a member of a youth offending team, or

ii

an officer of a provider of probation services,

as being suitable for the offender, and

b

the court is satisfied that the programme is available at the place or places it proposes to specify.

For this purpose, “programme” has the same meaning as in paragraph 12.
