CRIMES (SENTENCING) ACT 2005 - SECT 74

Amendment of start of sentences on setting aside or amending other sentences

    (1)     If a court sets aside or amends a sentence of imprisonment imposed on the offender (whether on appeal or otherwise), the court may amend the starting day of any other sentence that has been imposed on the offender by the court or another court.

    (2)     If the offender is subject to 2 or more sentences, this section applies to each of them.

    (3)     The court may amend the starting day of a sentence under this section on its own initiative, or the application of a party to the proceeding on the setting aside or amendment of the other sentence.

    (4)     An appeal does not lie only because the starting day of a sentence is amended under this section.

    (5)     The term of a sentence must not be amended under this section.
