INTERVENTION ORDERS (PREVENTION OF ABUSE) ACT 2009 - SECT 17

17—Explanation for defendant and protected persons

An issuing authority must endeavour to ensure that the defendant and protected persons understand—

            (a)         the terms and effect of an intervention order and any associated order, including, in the case of an interim intervention order, that the order acts as a summons; and

            (b)         if relevant, the effect of section 16; and

            (c)         that a protected person cannot give permission for contravention of an order,

(but failure to do so will not make an order invalid).
