(1) In lieu of reading out a document, the court may state its substantial content; this does not however apply where the actual wording of the document is decisive. If the person concerned, defence counsel, and the representative of the public prosecution office attending the main hearing, have taken cognisance of the wording of the document, or had an opportunity to do so, it is sufficient to include a statement to that effect in the record. Where reading out documents is dependent on the consent of the persons participating in the proceedings, this also applies to the procedure in accordance with the first and second sentences.
(2) Section 273 (2) of the Code of Criminal Procedure does not apply.
(3) Section 78 (3) of the Youth Courts Act applies accordingly to proceedings in respect of juveniles.
(4) Where a regulatory fine is assessed in respect of a juvenile or an adolescent, the youth court judge may at the same time issue an enforcement order in accordance with section 98 (1).
