Regina v Haringey Youth Court, Ex Parte A: QBD 30 May 2000

Where a youth court was considering the imposition of a detention and training order on a young offender under the Act, the court should always, before retiring state this possibility in open court so that the parties can ascertain the length of time if any spent already spent in custody so that proper allowance could be made when fixing the sentence.
