Section 36 removes the requirement for offenders to perform the work imposed under an unpaid work requirement during a period of 12 months.
	Section 37 provides an automatic reduction in sentenced Unpaid Work (UPW) hours when an offender demonstrates compliance with their UPW requirement.
	Sections 38 and 39 establish a community sentence progression scheme in the Probation Service to incentivise offenders to engage with probation and court-ordered requirements. The sections provide for early termination of a Community Order (CO) and the supervision period of a Suspended Sentence Order (SSO) if an offender has completed i) all court-ordered requirements and ii) all other objectives in their sentence plan. For SSOs, the suspended sentence can be activated throughout the full period of the originally sentenced order length.
