This section has no associated Explanatory Notes
(1)This section applies where a custodial sentence or sentence of service detention is passed on a warrant officer or non-commissioned officer (“the offender”) in respect of a service offence without a sentence of dismissal or dismissal with disgrace also being passed on the offender in respect of that or any other offence.
(2)The offender's rank or rate is reduced from the beginning of the day on which the sentence takes effect to the lowest rank or rate to which it could be reduced under section 164.
(3)For the purposes of this section, the making of an order under section 214 (detention for commission of offence during currency of order) in respect of a person is to be treated as the passing of a custodial sentence on him in respect of a service offence.
