1

A reparation order must not require the offender—

a

to make reparation for more than 24 hours; or

b

to make reparation to any person without the consent of that person.

2

Requirements specified in a reparation order must, as far as practicable, be such as to avoid—

a

any conflict with the offender's religious beliefs or with the requirements of any order to which he may be subject; and

b

any interference with the times, if any, at which he normally works or attends school or any other educational establishment.

3

The reparation required by a reparation order must be made—

a

under the supervision of the responsible officer; and

b

within the period of six months beginning with the date on which the order is made.

4

But, unless revoked, the order remains in force until the offender has made the reparation required by the order.

5

The Secretary of State may make rules for regulating the making of reparation by persons subject to reparation orders.

Such rules may, in particular, make provision—

a

regulating the functions of responsible officers;

b

limiting the number of hours of making reparation on any one day;

c

as to the reckoning of hours spent in complying with the requirements imposed by a reparation order;

d

as to the keeping of records of such hours; and

for the payment of travelling and other expenses incurred in connection with complying with such requirements.
