CHILDREN AND YOUNG PERSONS ACT (NORTHERN IRELAND) 1968 - SECT 84

Contents of training school orders

84.(1) A training school order may be made to take effect immediately, or,
subject to subsection (2), its operation may be postponed to a later date
specified in the order or to be subsequently specified by endorsement thereon
in accordance with the succeeding provisions of this Act.

(2) The operation of a training school order shall not be postponed except
pending the completion of arrangements for the reception of the child or
young person into a suitable school, or on account of his ill-health.

(3) If a training school order is not made to take effect immediately, or if
at the time when such an order takes effect the child or young person cannot
be sent to the school, the court which made the order or any other court which
would have jurisdiction to make an endorsement thereon under section 86 may
make an order committing him either to custody in any place to which he might
be committed on remand, or to the custody of a fit person to whose care he
might be committed under this Act, and subject to subsection (4) that order
shall have effect until he is sent to a training school in pursuance of the
training school order.

(4) An order made under subsection (3) shall not remain in force for more than
five weeks, but if at or before the expiration of that period any such court
as is mentioned in that subsection considers it expedient to do so, the court
may make a further order under that subsection.

(5) Any order or further order under subsection (3) may be made in the absence
of the child or young person concerned.
