The judge misapplied s68 because on the date of sentencing the prisoner was not 'undergoing' another sentence; the two-year order as drafted would have lengthened custody contrary to the judge's clear intention to add only six months. The Court allowed the appeal, quashed the two-year sentence and substituted a six-month term to give effect to the intended aggregate sentence.
