This is the original version (as it was originally enacted).
(1)A parenting order under this Chapter is an order which requires the person in respect of whom it is made (“the parent”)—
(a)to comply, for a period of not more than 12 months, with requirements specified in the order, and
(b)to attend, for a concurrent period of not more than 3 months, such counselling or guidance programme as may be specified in directions given by the responsible officer (see section 372).
(2)But a parenting order need not include a requirement under subsection (1)(b) if a parenting order (whether under this Chapter or any other enactment) has been made in respect of the parent on any previous occasion.
(3)If the parenting order provides this in accordance with section 366(7), 368(5) or 369(5), a counselling or guidance programme specified under subsection (1)(b) may be or include a residential course.
