The Powers of Criminal Courts (Sentencing) Act 2000 was the consolidating statute that, for most of the 2000s and 2010s, set out the sentencing powers of the criminal courts in England and Wales — deferment of sentence and committal for sentence, absolute and conditional discharges, the referral-order scheme for young offenders, community and reparation orders, custodial sentences, and financial orders such as compensation orders (s.130). It has been very largely repealed and replaced by the Sentencing Act 2020, which codified sentencing procedure into the 'Sentencing Code'. The 2000 Act remains historically important and continues to apply to a residue of cases, including some offences committed before the Code took effect.
