Because there was no adjudication or finding that the applicant had failed without reasonable excuse to comply with the CSO or supervisory directions, the power under s8(3) to revoke the CSO and resentence was not engaged; the 3 February 2006 sentence therefore lacked legal basis and was quashed. Judicial review was appropriate in the circumstances despite the availability of appeal given the expired appeal period, the applicant having served the sentence and the clear irregularity.
