HC Deb 21 October 1982 vol 29 c630

TRANSITIONAL PROVISIONS

Lords amendment: No 294, in page 123, line 34, leave out from "thereafter" to end of line 36 and insert have effect as if it were a requirement imposed under section 4B of that Act specifying as the clay centre which the probationer is required to attend the day centre at the premises of the day training centre

Mr. Mayhew:

I beg to move, That this House doth agree with the Lords in the said amendment.

The amendment would enable a requirement to attend a day training centre, made under the Powers of Criminal Courts Act 1973, to continue in force after section 4 of that Act is repealed on the implementation of the provisions of the Bill. Without this amendment, requirements under that provision would cease to have effect, and that would be a bad thing.

Question put and agreed to.

Lords amendment: No 295, in page 123, line 40, at end insert— Fines 17. Any provision of Schedule 14 to this Act which alters the penalty for any offence shall not affect the penalty for an offence committed before that provision comes into force.

The Solicitor-General for Scotland

I beg to move, That this House doth agree with the Lords in the said amendment.

The amendment provides that schedule 14 shall not affect the penalty which may be imposed in respect of an offence committed before it comes into force.

Question put and agreed to.
