Guideline judgments on application of Attorney General
37 Guideline judgments on application of Attorney General
The Court may give a guideline judgment on the application of the Attorney General.
An application for a guideline judgment may include submissions with respect to the framing of the proposed guidelines.
An application is not to be made in any proceedings before the Court with respect to a particular offender.
The powers and jurisdiction of the Court to give a guideline judgment in proceedings under this section in relation to an indictable or summary offence are the same as the powers and jurisdiction that the Court has, under section 37A, to give a guideline judgment in a pending proceeding in relation to an indictable offence.
A guideline judgment under this section may be given separately or may be included in any judgment of the Court that it considers appropriate.
