When is the deadline for start of the consent hearing for dealing with another offence (part 1)?
The catalogue records a 21 days period from Day on which the request for consent is received by the designated authority. This draft page remains free only until its source, worked example and limits are reviewed.
In preparation
The existing catalogue does not yet have a registered adapter or source evidence for this exact question. It remains available as a public preparation page only.
Example pending review
A separately reviewed fixture is required before this question can become indexable. The page does not present an unreviewed output as an example.
Calculation basis and source
- Period
- 21 days
- Trigger
- Day on which the request for consent is received by the designated authority
- Counting
- The encoded calculator method must be independently documented before publication.
- Rollovers and holidays
- Holiday, closure and order treatment must be independently documented before publication.
This route remains in preparation until a pinpoint official source is recorded.
- Expressly and repeatedly extendable. Section 54(6) permits extension in the interests of justice and 'may apply more than once'; s.54(7) allows the power to be exercised even after the period has ended. CrimPR 50.32(3)(b)(ii) mirrors this. Treat as a listing target. Note the consequence of NOT extending is refusal of consent, so the burden of seeking an extension sits with the requesting side.
- The equivalent provision for consent to onward extradition to another category 1 territory is s.56(5), in identical 21-day terms. The judge may adjourn the consent hearing at any time (s.54(9)).
