Whole provisions yet to be inserted into this Act (including any effects on those provisions):
(1)For the purposes of section 91(4)(b), the second set of conditions for a remand to youth detention accommodation in an extradition case is met in relation to a child if each of the following is met in relation to the child—
(a)the age condition (see subsection (2)),
(b)the sentencing condition (see subsection (3)),
(c)the offence condition (see subsection (4)),
(d)the first or second history condition or both (see subsections (5) and (6)),
(e)the necessity condition (see subsection (7)), and
(f)the first or second legal representation condition (see subsections (8) and (9)).
(2)The age condition is that the child has reached the age of twelve.
(3)The sentencing condition is that it appears to the court that, if the child were convicted in England and Wales of an offence equivalent to the offence to which the extradition proceedings relate or one or more of those offences, [F1it is very likely] that the child would be sentenced to a custodial sentence for that offence or those offences.
(4)The offence condition is that the offence to which the extradition proceedings relate, or one or more of those offences, is an imprisonable offence.
(5)The first history condition is that—
(a)the child has a recent [F2and significant] history of absconding while subject to a custodial remand, [F3and it appears to the court that the history is relevant in all the circumstances of the case,] and
(b)the offence to which the extradition proceedings relate, or one or more of those offences, is alleged to be or has been found to have been committed while the child was subject to a custodial remand.
(6)The second history condition is that the offence or offences to which the extradition proceedings relate, together with any other imprisonable offences of which the child has been convicted, amount or would, if the child were convicted of that offence or those offences, amount to a recent [F4and significant] history of committing imprisonable offences while on bail or subject to a custodial remand [F5, and this appears to the court relevant in all the circumstances of the case].
(7)The necessity condition is that the court is of the opinion, after considering all the options for the remand of the child, that only remanding the child to youth detention accommodation would be adequate—
(a)to protect the public from death or serious personal injury (whether physical or psychological) occasioned by further offences committed by the child, or
(b)to prevent the commission by the child of imprisonable offences [F6,
and that the risks posed by the child cannot be managed safely in the community].
(8)The first legal representation condition is that the child is legally represented before the court.
(9)The second legal representation condition is that the child is not legally represented before the court and—
(a)representation was provided to the child under Part 1 of this Act for the purposes of the proceedings, but was withdrawn—
(i)because of the child's conduct, or
(ii)because it appeared that the child's financial resources were such that the child was not eligible for such representation,
(b)the child applied for such representation and the application was refused because it appeared that the child's financial resources were such that the child was not eligible for such representation, or
(c)having been informed of the right to apply for such representation and having had the opportunity to do so, the child refused or failed to apply.
