I move amendment No. 16:
In page 26, after line 32, to insert the following:
"Application of monies where only part of fine is paid
24. Where monies applied towards the payment of a fine are insufficient to pay the fine in full, the monies shall be applied in the following order:(a) first, towards the payment of that part of the fine which is the costs referred to in the definition of "fine" in section 2(1);
(b) second (if any monies remain), towards the payment of that part of the fine which is the compensation referred to in that definition;
(c) third (if any monies remain), towards the payment of that part of the fine which is the expenses referred to in that definition; and
(d) fourth (if any monies remain), towards the payment of the remainder of the fine.".
