(2) A requirement to appear is--
(a) if bail is granted--a requirement to appear in accordance with the accused person's bail acknowledgment, or
(b) if bail is dispensed with--a requirement to appear as and when required by the court or by any notice or other process by which a person can be required to appear before a court.
(3) The time at which a person is required to appear is the time at which the matter relating to the offence is called at court premises (whether or not the matter is dealt with at that time).
