Section 59E applies to persons convicted in the Magistrates' Courts because 'serious arrestable offence' refers to the character of the offence as established at commission and not to the sentence actually imposed upon summary conviction; there is no textual or contextual basis to read a qualification excluding magistrates' convictions and the sampling regime is proportionate to legitimate law enforcement objectives.
