Where a person is convicted of an offence under this Act, the Court may make an order for the payment of compensation to any person for any damage caused by the offence.
Any claim by a person for damages sustained by reason of the offence shall be deemed to have been satisfied to the extent of any amount which has been paid to that person under an order for compensation, but the order shall not prejudice any right to a civil remedy for the recovery of damages beyond the amount of compensation paid under the order.
