Part 7: Sentencing and release Chapter 1: Custodial sentences Section 141: Increase in driving disqualification periods under certain existing orders: England and Wales
Section 141 makes provision to amend the appropriate extension period for certain offenders whose appropriate extension period does not align with the release provision of their sentence.
	Section 141 applies where a driving disqualification order was imposed before commencement in accordance with the provisions specified in subsection (3). Where an offender is subject to section 244ZA (or SI 2020/158 before commencement of that section) or 247A of the CJA 2003, has been made subject to an incorrect appropriate extension period as part of their disqualification order, and they are yet to be released, new subsection (2) of this Section (section 141) applies to adjust the appropriate extension period to the length it would be had it been imposed after commencement of section 140.
	Subsection (5) ensures that any sentence imposed under a provision that may then be repealed by the 2020 Act that are referenced in subsection (1)(d), (2)(d) and (4) are read as referring to an equivalent sentence imposed under corresponding provision in the 2020 Act.
