128—Type of order

        (1)         If the Court determines to transfer a child protection order (the "home order") under this Part, the Court may, for the purpose of the transfer, vary the terms of the order so that it makes provision for any matter in terms that could be included in a child protection order made under the child welfare law of the participating State and that the Court believes to be—

            (a)         to the same or a similar effect as the terms of the home order; or

            (b)         otherwise in the best interests of the child.

        (2)         In determining whether an order to the same or a similar effect as the home order could be made under the child welfare law of the participating State, the Court must not take into account the period for which it is possible under that law for such an order to be in force.

        (3)         The Court must specify in the transferred order the period for which it is to remain in force.

        (4)         The period must be any period that is possible for a child protection order of the type of the transferred order under the child welfare law of the participating State commencing from the date of its registration in that State and that the Court considers appropriate.
