The Community Service Orders (Northern Ireland Consequential Amendments) Order 1989
The Treatment of Offenders (Northern Ireland) Order 1989 reduced from 17 to 16 years the minimum age at which a person may be made subject to a community service order in Northern Ireland. This Order makes amendments to the law of England and Wales and Scotland which are consequential on this reduction and which enable a court in England and Wales or Scotland to make or amend a community service order in respect of a person of 16 years of age who resides or proposes to reside in Northern Ireland.
