Crime and Disorder Act 1998 (Youth Conditional Cautions: Code of Practice) Order 2009

I understand that point. There should be parity in how these cautions are implemented and there is no reason to believe that there is not. There are strict conditions on what can be awarded, in terms of financial penalty at least, against someone who is subject to a conditional caution. I think the noble Lord is asking whether some areas use these rather more than others. I do not have information but will write to all those who have spoken in the debate if I can get some further information on these issues.
