(b) who is charged with or has at any time been convicted or found guilty of a WWC category B offence specified in clause 2, 8, 9, 15 or 22 of Schedule 4 if the conduct constituting or alleged to constitute that offence occurred when the person was a child; or
(c) who is charged with or has at any time been convicted or found guilty of an offence other than a WWC category A offence or a WWC category B offence; or
