(1) The court is to
cause an order that it makes after finding a young person guilty of an offence
to be reduced to writing and, as soon as practicable after the order is made,
is to cause a copy of it to be given —
(a) to
the person in respect of whom the order is made; and
(b) if
the registrar of the court knows or can by reasonable enquiry ascertain the
whereabouts or address of such a person, to a person who is a responsible
adult; and
(c) to
the chief executive officer.
(2) Subsection (1)
extends to any order made by the court that relates to the obligations imposed
by, or otherwise affects, an order referred to in that subsection.
(3) If the court
imposes a fine on a young person or makes any other order requiring a young
person to pay money, it is to cause the person to be given a notice stating in
language likely to be readily understood by the person the amount that the
person has to pay and the time and place at which payment may be, or is
required to be, made.
(4) An order of the
court is not defective on the ground of failure to comply with this section.
