Penalties on summary conviction for offences triable either summarily or on indictment S

2 (1) Where an offence created by a relevant enactment may be tried either on indictment or summarily, the penalty or maximum penalty on summary conviction shall, to the extent that it included, immediately before the commencement of section 55 of the M7 Criminal Justice Act 1982, a penalty or maximum penalty mentioned in column 1 of the Table below, be amended so as to substitute as a maximum penalty the corresponding penalty set forth in column 2 thereof (unless provision is expressly made by any enactment for a larger penalty or maximum penalty on summary conviction)— S

(3) Sub-paragraph (1) above is without prejudice to section 5 of the Principal Act (6 months’ imprisonment competent for certain offences).

(4) In this paragraph “relevant enactment” means an enactment contained in the M8 Criminal Law Act 1977 or in any other Act (including this Act).

(5) Sub-paragraph (1) of paragraph 7 below shall not affect so much of any enactment as (in whatever words) provides for a person to be made liable, on summary conviction, to a fine or a maximum fine for each period of a specified length during which a continuing offence is committed.

(6) Where an enactment to which sub-paragraph (1) of the said paragraph 7 below applies provides for a person to be made liable to a penalty or a maximum penalty on summary conviction of an offence triable either on indictment or summarily which includes a fine or a maximum fine in respect of a specified quantity or a specified number of things, that sub-paragraph shall apply to that fine or maximum fine.

Increase of fines for certain summary offences S

3 (1) The enactments specified in column 2 of Part II of Schedule 2 to this Act, which relate to the maximum fines for the offences mentioned (and broadly described) in column 1 of that Schedule, shall have effect as if the maximum fine that may be imposed on summary conviction of any offence so mentioned were a fine not exceeding the amount specified in column 4 of that Schedule instead of a fine not exceeding the amount specified in column 3 of that Schedule (being the amount of the maximum fine in respect of the offence immediately before the passing of the M9 Criminal Law Act 1977), but this sub-paragraph shall not alter the maximum daily fine, if any, provided for by any of those enactments. S

(2) In section 203 of the M10 Local Government (Scotland) Act 1973 (offences against byelaws), except as applied to byelaws made under any provision contained in a local or private Act other than by a local authority, for any reference to £20 there shall be substituted a reference to £50.

(3) Subject to sub-paragraph (4) below, this sub-paragraph applies to any pre-1949 enactment however framed or worded which—

(a) as regards any summary offence makes a person liable on conviction thereof to a fine of, or not exceeding, a specified amount less than £50 which has not been altered since the end of 1948 (and is not altered by this Act); or

(b) confers power by subordinate instrument to make a person, as regards any summary offence (whether or not created by the instrument), liable on conviction thereof to a fine of, or a maximum fine of, less than £50 which has not been altered since the end of 1948 (and is not altered by this Act).

(7) Sub-paragraph (3) above does not apply to so much of any enactment as, in whatever words, makes a person liable or provides for a person to be made liable, on summary conviction, to a fine or a maximum fine for each period of a specified length during which a continuing offence is committed.

(8) Where an enactment to which sub-paragraph (3) above applies provides or confers a power to provide for, on conviction of an offence triable only summarily, a fine or a maximum fine in respect of a specified quantity or a specified number of things, “the specified amount” for the purposes of subsection (5) above is the fine or maximum fine so provided or for which provision may be made.

(9) In sub-paragraph (3) above “pre-1949 enactment” means an enactment passed before 1st January 1949 or an enactment passed on or after that date which whether directly or, through successive re-enactments, indirectly re-enacts with or without modification an enactment passed before that date.

to which an offender would have been liable or could have been made liable on any conviction (whether the first or a second or subsequent conviction) by or under the enactment immediately before the relevant date.
