Meaning of punishment review
24 Meaning of punishment review
For the purposes of this Part, a punishment review is a review of a punishment or a Part IV order that is declared by a provision of Part 2, 3, 4 or 5 of this Schedule to be a liability of the person.
The provisions of Part VIIIA of the amended Act apply in relation to a punishment review in the same way (as nearly as possible) as they would apply in relation to:
in a case to which a provision of Division 2 of this Part applies-the review of proceedings of a general court martial that imposed a punishment or made a Part IV order; or
in a case to which a provision of Division 3 of this Part applies-the review of proceedings of a summary authority that imposed a punishment or made a Part IV order.
To avoid doubt, a punishment review may modify or affect a punishment or Part IV order that is declared by a provision of Part 2, 3, 4 or 5 of this Schedule to be a liability of the person.
