Part 6: Cautions Section 102: Financial penalty conditions
Section 102 establishes how financial penalty conditions can be attached to a diversionary caution. Subsection (1) states that a condition requiring the offender to pay a financial penalty can be attached to a diversionary condition with the purposes of punishing the offender.
	Subsection (2)(a) – (d) sets out that the condition must specify the amount of the financial penalty, the person to whom the financial penalty must be paid, how it may be paid, and the date before which it must be paid. Subsection (3) caps the level of financial penalty in that it cannot exceed an amount prescribed in regulations.
	Subsection (4) requires a person, who is not a designated officer for a magistrates’ court and who has received payment of a financial penalty in accordance with a financial penalty condition, to give that payment to a designated officer for a magistrates’ court. This has the practical effect of ensuring that money paid in respect of a financial penalty is received into central funds.
	Subsection (5) allows 28 days for payment beginning with the day on which the caution was given.
