On 6 October 2014 the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) accepted guilty pleas to one count of making an explosive substance, three counts of possessing a prohibited firearm and one count of putting a person in fear of violence by harassment. The pleas were accepted on the basis that if Harry Street\u2019s mental health ever deteriorated to the same extent it had in 1978 he was undoubtedly capable of deploying the weapons.<\/p>
The decision not to proceed with the four remaining counts was taken in accordance with the Code for Crown Prosecutors which provides: \u201cProsecutors should only accept the defendant\u2019s plea if they think the court is able to pass a sentence that matches the seriousness of the offending\u201d. In view of the evidence before the court, it was clear to the CPS that the sentence imposed by the court would be a restricted hospital order under section 37 and section 41 of the Mental Health Act 1983 whether he was convicted of all counts, or those which were accepted as pleas.<\/p>
In making a restricted hospital order, the Learned Judge fully supported the approach taken by the CPS. The court ordered the remaining counts to lie on the file not to proceed without the leave of the court.<\/p>
The decision to accept the guilty pleas on 6 October 2014 was taken following full consultation with the victims/ victims\u2019 families for both the recent offences and the 1978 offences.<\/p>"}

Any private individual or entity who/which is not acting on behalf of the police or another prosecuting authority may bring a private prosecution. There are some organisations that regularly prosecute cases as a private prosecutor before the courts of England and Wales, for example the RSPCA. Furthermore, there are other prosecution authorities that bring prosecutions pursuant to statute, including the Serious Fraud Office and the Service Prosecuting Authority. Some offences can only be brought if the consent of the Director of Public Prosecutions or the Attorney General is obtained.<\/p>
