(c)  Except as provided in paragraph (b) of this subdivision, in any case wherein the charge laid before the court alleges a violation of subdivision one of this section by a person who was under the age of twenty-one at the time of commission of the offense, the court, with the

court unless such plea includes as a condition thereof the requirement that the defendant  attend and complete the alcohol and drug rehabilitation program established pursuant to section eleven hundred ninety-six of this  article, including any assessment and treatment required thereby; provided, however, that such requirement may be waived by the court upon application of the district attorney or the defendant demonstrating that the defendant, as a condition of the plea, has been required to enter into and complete an alcohol or drug treatment program prescribed pursuant to an alcohol or substance abuse screening or assessment conducted pursuant to section eleven  hundred  ninety-eight-a of this article or for other good cause shown.
