I move amendment No. 58:

In page 13, to delete lines 41 to 47 and in page 14, to delete lines 1 and 2 and substitute the following:

15.—(1) A court shall, when imposing a fine on a person consequent upon his or her being convicted of an offence, make an order (in this section referred to as a "recovery order") appointing an approved person (in this section referred to as a "receiver") to—

(a) recover the fine, or

(b) seize and sell property belonging to the first-mentioned person and recover from the proceeds of the sale of that property a sum equal to the amount of the fine.".
