3 A person who has been released on bail in criminal proceedings and is under a duty to surrender into the custody of a court may be arrested without warrant by a constable—

a if the constable has reasonable grounds for believing that that person is not likely to surrender to custody;

b if the constable has reasonable grounds for believing that that person is likely to break any of the conditions of his bail or has reasonable grounds for suspecting that that person has broken any of those conditions; or

c in a case where that person was released on bail with one or more surety or sureties, if a surety notifies a constable in writing that that person is unlikely to surrender to custody and that for that reason the surety wishes to be relieved of his obligations as a surety.

4 a person arrested in pursuance of subsection (3) above—

a shall, except where he was arrested within 24 hours of the time appointed for him to surrender to custody, be brought as soon as practicable and in any event within 24 hours after his arrest before a justice of the peace ^F144...; and

c the person has not been convicted of an offence in those proceedings, and

d it appears to the justice of the peace that there is no real prospect that the person will be sentenced to a custodial sentence in the proceedings.

c subsection (7) has effect, for the purposes of subsection (4), as if at the end there were added “, Saturday or bank holiday.”

8 Bail with sureties.¶

1 This section applies where a person is granted bail in criminal proceedings on condition that he provides one or more surety or sureties for the purpose of securing that he surrenders to custody.

2 In considering the suitability for that purpose of a proposed surety, regard may be had (amongst other things) to—

a the surety’s financial resources;

b his character and any previous convictions of his; and

c his proximity (whether in point of kinship, place of residence or otherwise) to the person for whom he is to be surety.

3 Where a court grants a person bail in criminal proceedings on such a condition but is unable to release him because no surety or no suitable surety is available, the court shall fix the amount in which the surety is to be bound and subsections (4) and (5) below, or in a case where the proposed surety resides in Scotland subsection (6) below, shall apply for the purpose of enabling the recognizance of the surety to be entered into subsequently.

4 Where this subsection applies the recognizance of the surety may be entered into before such of the following persons or descriptions of persons as the court may by order specify or, if it makes no such order, before any of the following persons, that is to say—

a where the decision is taken by a magistrates’ court, before a justice of the peace ^F203... or a police officer who either is of the rank of inspector or above or is in charge of a police station or, if Criminal Procedure Rules so provide, by a person of such other description as is specified in the rules;

b where the decision is taken by the Crown Court, before any of the persons specified in paragraph (a) above or, if Criminal Procedure Rules so provide, by a person of such other description as is specified in the rules;

c where the decision is taken by the High Court or the Court of Appeal, before any of the persons specified in paragraph (a) above or, if Civil Procedure Rules or Criminal Procedure Rules so provide, by a person of such other description as is specified in the rules;

d where the decision is taken by the Court Martial Appeal Court, before any of the persons specified in paragraph (a) above or, if Court Martial Appeal Rules so provide, by a person of such other description as is specified in the rules;

and Civil Procedure Rules, Criminal Procedure Rules or Court Martial Appeal Rules may also prescribe the manner in which a recognizance which is to be entered into before such a person is to be entered into and the persons by whom and the manner in which the recognizance may be enforced.

5 Where a surety seeks to enter into his recognizance before any person in accordance with subsection (4) above but that person declines to take his recognizance because he is not satisfied of the surety’s suitability, the surety may apply to—

a the court which fixed the amount of the recognizance in which the surety was to be bound, or

b a magistrates’ court ^F100...,

for that court to take his recognizance and that court shall, if satisfied of his suitability, take his recognizance.

6 Where this subsection applies, the court, if satisfied of the suitability of the proposed surety, may direct that arrangements be made for the recognizance of the surety to be entered into in Scotland before any constable, within the meaning of the Police and Fire Reform (Scotland) Act 2012, having charge at any police office or station in like manner as the recognizance would be entered into in England or Wales.

7 Where, in pursuance of subsection (4) or (6) above, a recognizance is entered into otherwise than before the court that fixed the amount of the recognizance, the same consequences shall follow as if it had been entered into before that court.

Miscellaneous¶

9 Offence of agreeing to indemnify sureties in criminal proceedings.¶

1 If a person agrees with another to indemnify that other against any liability which that other may incur as a surety to secure the surrender to custody of a person accused or convicted of or under arrest for an offence, he and that other person shall be guilty of an offence.

2 An offence under subsection (1) above is committed whether the agreement is made before or after the person to be indemnified becomes a surety and whether or not he becomes a surety and whether the agreement contemplates compensation in money or in money’s worth.

3 Where a magistrates’ court convicts a person of an offence under subsection (1) above the court may, if it thinks—

a that the circumstances of the offence are such that greater punishment should be inflicted for that offence than the court has power to inflict, or

b in a case where it sends that person for trial to the Crown Court for another offence, that it would be appropriate for him to be dealt with for the offence under subsection (1) above by the court before which he is tried for the other offence,

commit him in custody or on bail to the Crown Court for sentence.

4 A person guilty of an offence under subsection (1) above shall be liable—

a on summary conviction, to imprisonment for a term not exceeding 3 months or to a fine not exceeding £400 or to both; or

b on conviction on indictment or if sentenced by the Crown Court on committal for sentence under subsection (3) above, to imprisonment for a term not exceeding 12 months or to a fine or to both.

9A Bail decisions relating to children or young persons who are accused of offences mentioned in Schedule 2 to the Magistrates' Courts Act 1980¶

1 This section applies whenever—

a a magistrates' court is considering whether to withhold or grant bail in relation to a child or young person who is accused of a scheduled offence; and

b the trial of that offence has not begun.

2 The court shall, before deciding whether to withhold or grant bail, consider whether, having regard to any representations made by the prosecutor or the accused child or young person, the value involved does not exceed the relevant sum for the purposes of section 22.

3 The duty in subsection (2) does not apply in relation to an offence if—

a a determination under subsection (4) has already been made in relation to that offence; or

b the accused child or young person is, in relation to any other offence of which he is accused which is not a scheduled offence, a person to whom Part 1 of Schedule 1 to this Act applies.

4 If where the duty in subsection (2) applies it appears to the court clear that, for the offence in question, the amount involved does not exceed the relevant sum, the court shall make a determination to that effect.

5 In this section—

a “relevant sum” has the same meaning as in section 22(1) of the Magistrates' Courts Act 1980 (certain either way offences to be tried summarily if value involved is less than the relevant sum);

b “scheduled offence” means an offence mentioned in Schedule 2 to that Act (offences for which the value involved is relevant to the mode of trial); and

c “the value involved” is to be construed in accordance with section 22(10) to (12) of that Act.

as well as to any others which appear to be relevant.
