Serious Crime Act 2015 Explanatory Notes

Section 30: Variation and discharge

100.This section makes broadly analogous provision in relation to Northern Ireland for the discharge of confiscation orders where the defendant has died to that contained in section 8 in respect of England and Wales. Whereas, under section 8, an application to the Crown Court for the discharge of a confiscation order is made by the designated officer for a magistrates’ court, under this section such application will be made by the prosecutor.
