*SECTION 21 OF THE FIREARMS ACT 1968: It is an offence for someone who is prohibited by Section 21 to have a firearm or ammunition in his or her possession at any time. Section 21 applies to anyone who has been sentenced to imprisonment, or to youth custody or detention in a young offender’s institution, for three months or more. The period for why they are prohibited depends on the length of their sentence; if the sentence was longer than three years the prohibition is for life. If the sentence was three months or more but less than three years, the prohibition lasts for five years from the date of their release. It is an offence for a person to transfer, let or hire, give or lend a firearm or ammunition to someone whom he/she knows has reasonable grounds for believing to be prohibited by Section 21.
