(a)subsection (3), and
(b)section 37(8) of the Mental Health Act 1983 (youth rehabilitation order not to be made in combination with hospital order or guardianship order in respect of same offence).
(3)A youth rehabilitation order is not available if a mandatory sentence requirement applies in relation to the offence (see section 399)—
