Section 9 of the MG5 must be completed if compensation is required irrespective of whether the person seeking compensation has been sent an MG19 and/or has completed it.
This is because the MG19 may not have been returned in time for the first court hearing and if the defendant pleads guilty the award of compensation will rely on the details contained in the MG5.
This section is intended to enable the CPS lawyer at court to answer any queries raised by the defence or the court as to whether a conditional caution was considered in this case, and if not, the reasons why.
