After conviction for a sex offence, the defendant, a youth, appealed the addition of the extended sentence to his Detention and Training Order.
Held: there was no power under the 2000 Act, to add such an extended sentence to the training order. An extended notice could be added to a sentence of imprisonment but the scheme of the statute clearly differentiated between detention and training orders and the general scheme of imprisonment.
