I hadn't previously checked what the penalty was, but:
Level 5 on the standard scale is currently £5,000. And the part about summary conviction means there'll be no jury.
In case you were wondering, it's not legal for two 15-year-olds so have sex either. So at least we're consistent, if dogmatic.
(3) A person shall be liable on summary conviction of an offence under this section to imprisonment for a period not exceeding 6 months or to a fine not exceeding level 5 on the standard scale or to both.
