Before making a youth conference order, the court must state in open court that it is of the opinion that Article 36J(3) applies and why it is of that opinion.
Before making a youth conference order, the court must explain to the offender in ordinary language—
why it is making the order;
the effect of the order and of the requirements proposed to be included in it;
the consequences which may follow under Schedule 1A if he fails to comply with those requirements; and
that the court has power under that Schedule to review the order on the application either of the offender or of the responsible officer.
In this Order “responsible officer”, in relation to an offender subject to a youth conference order, means the youth conference co-ordinator, or other person designated by the Secretary of State, who is specified in the order.
If the court is a magistrates' court, it must cause any reasons given under Article 36J(7) or paragraph (1) or (2)(a) to be entered in the Order Book.
A youth conference order must name the petty sessions district in which it appears to—
the court making the order; or
the court amending under Schedule 1A any provision included in the order,
that the offender resides or will reside.
The court by which a youth conference order is made must
the offender subject to the order;
his parent or guardian; and
the responsible officer.
Except where the court is itself a magistrates' court acting for the petty sessions district specified in the order, the court must send to the clerk of petty sessions for the petty sessions district so specified—
a copy of the order; and
such documents and information relating to the case as it considers likely to be of assistance to a youth court acting for that district in exercising its functions in relation to the order.
Schedule 1A (which makes provision for dealing with failures to comply with youth conference orders and for their revocation and amendment) shall have effect.
