In Scotland the court may make an order under this section for the forfeiture of any—

articles specifically designed or adapted for making copies of a particular copyright work.
2
An order under this section may be made—
a
on an application by the procurator-fiscal made in the manner specified in section 134 of the Criminal Procedure (Scotland) Act 1995 (c. 46), or
b
where a person is convicted of a relevant offence, in addition to any other penalty which the court may impose.
3
On an application under subsection (2)(a), the court shall make an order for the forfeiture of any infringing copies or articles only if it is satisfied that a relevant offence has been committed in relation to the infringing copies or articles.
4
The court may infer for the purposes of this section that such an offence has been committed in relation to any infringing copies or articles if it is satisfied that such an offence has been committed in relation to infringing copies or articles which are representative of the infringing copies or articles in question (whether by reason of being of the same design or part of the same consignment or batch or otherwise).
5
The procurator-fiscal making the application under subsection (2)(a) shall serve on any person appearing to him to be the owner of, or otherwise to have an interest in, the infringing copies or articles to which the application relates a copy of the application, together with a notice giving him the opportunity to appear at the hearing of the application to show cause why the infringing copies or articles should not be forfeited.
6
Service under subsection (5) shall be carried out, and such service may be proved, in the manner specified for citation of an accused in summary proceedings under the Criminal Procedure (Scotland) Act 1995.
7
Any person upon whom notice is served under subsection (5) and any other person claiming to be the owner of, or otherwise to have an interest in, infringing copies or articles to which an application under this section relates shall be entitled to appear at the hearing of the application to show cause why the infringing copies or articles should not be forfeited.
8
The court shall not make an order following an application under subsection (2)(a)—
a
if any person on whom notice is served under subsection (5) does not appear, unless service of the notice on that person is proved, or
b
if no notice under subsection (5) has been served, unless the court is satisfied that in the circumstances it was reasonable not to serve such notice.
9
Where an order for the forfeiture of any infringing copies or articles is made following an application under subsection (2)(a), any person who appeared, or was entitled to appear, to show cause why infringing copies or articles should not be forfeited may, within 21 days of the making of the order, appeal to the High Court by Bill of Suspension.
10
Section 182(5)(a) to (e) of the Criminal Procedure (Scotland) Act 1995 (c. 46) shall apply to an appeal under subsection (9) as it applies to a stated case under Part 2 of that Act.

An order following an application under subsection (2)(a) shall not take effect—
a
until the end of the period of 21 days beginning with the day after the day on which the order is made, or
b
if an appeal is made under subsection (9) above within that period, until the appeal is determined or abandoned.
12
An order under subsection (2)(b) shall not take effect—
a
until the end of the period within which an appeal against the order could be brought under the Criminal Procedure (Scotland) Act 1995, or
