Section 119 Corresponding provisions in Scotland and Northern Ireland

This section applies where it appears to the Welsh Ministers that there is provision in Scotland or Northern Ireland under which a person may be dealt with in any way which corresponds (whether or not exactly) with a way in which a person may be dealt with under this Chapter.

A decision in Scotland or Northern Ireland to deal with such a person in such a way is referred to in this section as a “corresponding decision”.

If this section applies, the Welsh Ministers may make regulations providing for the effect to be given in Wales to a corresponding decision.

That effect need not be the same as the effect of the decision in the place where it was made.

The regulations may not provide for a corresponding decision to be reviewed or revoked in Wales.
