CHILDREN AND YOUNG PERSONS ACT (NORTHERN IRELAND) 1968 - SECT 95

1964 c.21

95.(1) If a juvenile court is satisfied that any person brought before the
court under section 94 by [the Ministry of Home Affairs], constable or
authorised person, is a child or young person in need of care, protection or
control, the court may either

(a)order him to be sent to a training school; or

(b)commit him to the care of any fit person, whether a relative or not, who is
willing to undertake the care of him; or

(c)order his parent or guardian to enter into a recognizance to exercise
proper care and guardianship; or

(d)without making any other order, or in addition to making an order under
paragraph (b) or (c), make a supervision order with respect to him;

(2) The Magistrates' Courts Act (Northern Ireland) 1964 shall apply in
relation to recognizances under subsection (1) as it applies in relation to
recognizances to be of good behaviour, and where such a recognizance is
ordered to be estreated, the court, instead of ordering the person bound
thereby to pay the sum in which he is bound or part of the said sum, may remit
payment thereof.
