101 Suspension order ceases if offender reoffends
(1) A suspension order made for a registrable offender ceases to have
effect if, after the order is made, the offender—
(a) is found guilty of a registrable offence; or
(b) is made the subject of a child sex offender registration order; or
(c) becomes a prescribed corresponding offender.
Note If an offender’s reporting obligations are suspended and the suspension
order ceases to have effect, the offender must report the offender’s
personal details to the chief police officer at an approved reporting place
within the time stated in s 30 (Offence—offender whose reporting
suspension ceases must report).
(2) A suspension order that has ceased to have effect under subsection (1)
is revived if—
(a) the finding of guilt because of which the order ceased to have
effect is quashed or set aside by a court; or
(b) the order ceased to have effect under subsection (1) (b) and the
child sex offender registration order is quashed on appeal or the
registrable offender’s finding of guilt for the offence because of
which the child sex offender registration order is made is
quashed or set aside by a court.
(3) For this section, it is irrelevant whether or not a registrable offender
may begin, or has begun, an appeal in relation to a finding of guilt or
a child sex offender registration order.
