Confiscation (Amendment) Act 2003—Schedule 2—attempts transitional provisions

    (1)     Despite the amendment of item 5 of Schedule 2 by  section 40 of the Confiscation (Amendment) Act 2003 , item 5, as in force immediately before the commencement of that section, continues to apply in respect of any offence referred to in item 5 (as in force immediately before that commencement) which is alleged to have been committed before the commencement of that section.

    (2)     Item 5 of Schedule 2, as amended by section 40 of the Confiscation (Amendment) Act 2003 , applies only with respect to an offence alleged to have been committed after the commencement of that section.

    (3)     For the purposes of this section, if an offence is alleged to have been committed between two dates and section 40 of the Confiscation (Amendment) Act 2003 commences on a date between those two dates, the offence is alleged to have been committed before the commencement of that section.
