Alternative to detention where no place available in children detention school.
|
145.—Where—
|
| |
(a) a court would impose a period of detention on a child under 16 years of age if a place were available for the child in a children detention school,
|
| |
(b) such a place is not available, and
|
| |
(c) the court is satisfied that it would not be appropriate in the particular case to defer making a children detention order,
|
| |
it may make, instead of a children detention order, an order imposing on the child the community sanction it considers most appropriate for the child.
