Original text. Later amendments are not shown.

Where a child is charged with an offence and a court—

(b)

finds him guilty but does not pass a custodial sentence or a community sentence,

the court may, if the court considers that his welfare requires it, notify the appropriate authority of such matters as the court thinks fit.
