Explosives order
14A Explosives order
A court making an FVRO or VRO must consider whether it should include a restraint prohibiting the person who is bound by the order from —
being in possession of any explosives; or
obtaining, or being in possession of, an explosives licence.
A person who is bound by a restraint under subsection (1) must give up possession, to a person and in a manner prescribed by the regulations, of all explosives and explosives licences held by the person who is bound.
A person who is subject to the operation of subsection (2) and who is lawfully in possession of explosives or an explosives licence immediately before the order is made under subsection (1) is not in breach of the order if the person is in possession of the explosives or explosives licence during the period necessary to comply with the terms of the order.
In addition to the operation of subsection (1), a court may permit the person who is bound by an FVRO or VRO to have possession of explosives, and, if necessary, an explosives licence relating to the explosives, on such conditions as the court thinks fit and specifies as part of the FVRO or VRO.
