239 Failure to attend youth justice planning meeting
If the sentencing of a child is deferred under section 222 for the purposes of the child's participation in a youth justice planning meeting and the child fails to participate in the meeting, the Children's Court must not impose on the child a sentence more severe than it would have imposed had sentencing not been deferred.
