Section 5AB — Sentencing for offences
5AB Sentencing for offences The provisions of this Act and the regulations apply no differently in relation to a single sentence imposed by a court in respect of 2 or more offences to the way in which those provisions apply in relation to a sentence imposed by a court in respect of a single offence. Example: Paragraph 501(7)(c) applies in relation to a person sentenced to a term of imprisonment of 12 months or more. Because of this section, that paragraph applies in relation to a person sentenced to such a term, whether the sentence is imposed for a single offence or for 2 or more offences.
