The Armed Forces (Summary Hearing and Activation of Suspended Sentences of Service Detention) Rules 2009
These Rules make provision with respect to the summary hearing by commanding officers of charges brought and allocated for summary hearing under Part 5 of the Armed Forces Act 2006 (c. 52). The Rules also make provision with respect to hearings where a commanding officer may activate a suspended sentence of service detention after an individual has been convicted of an offence in the British Islands (i.e. a civilian offence rather than a service offence), committed during the operational period of the suspended sentence.
