13 Effect of order on court’s other powersE+W
(1)If the court makes a confiscation order it must proceed as mentioned in subsections (2) and (4) in respect of the offence or offences concerned.
(2)The court must take account of the confiscation order before—
(a)it imposes a fine on the defendant, or
(b)it makes an order falling within subsection (3).
(3)These orders fall within this subsection—
(a)an order involving payment by the defendant, other than [F1an order under section 21A of the Prosecution of Offences Act 1985 (criminal courts charge) or] [F2a priority order];
(b)an order under section 27 of the Misuse of Drugs Act 1971 (c. 38) (forfeiture orders);
(c)an order under section 143 of the Sentencing Act (deprivation orders);
(d)an order under section 23 [F3or 23A] of the Terrorism Act 2000 (c. 11) (forfeiture orders).
[F4(3A)In this section “priority order” means any of the following—
(a)a compensation order under section 130 of the Sentencing Act;
(b)an order requiring payment of a surcharge under section 161A of the Criminal Justice Act 2003;
(c)an unlawful profit order under section 4 of the Prevention of Social Housing Fraud Act 2013.]

(4)Subject to subsection (2), the court must leave the confiscation order out of account in deciding the appropriate sentence for the defendant.
[F6(5)Subsection (6) applies if—
(a)the Crown Court makes both a confiscation order and one or more priority orders against the same person in the same proceedings, and
(b)the court believes the person will not have sufficient means to satisfy all those orders in full.]
(6)In such a case the court must direct that so much of the [F7amount payable under the priority order (or orders)] as it specifies is to be paid out of any sums recovered under the confiscation order; and the amount it specifies must be the amount it believes will not be recoverable because of the insufficiency of the person’s means.
