  -> Obrigada pela sugestão, também já encontrei essa tradução e concordo que também esteja correcta. só uma nota: verifiquei no google, em páginas U.K. e "foreseen and punishable" é mais recorrente (809) do que "provided for and punishable" (3).
agree  Sonia Maria Parise: concordo com Walter

Asker: Boa Tarde Carla, Thank you for your swift input but I'm afraid neither of the options you present seem to fit the context. I'd love to hear from you if you have any other suggestions.
