a
a warrant has been issued under sub-paragraph (2) above for the purpose of securing the attendance of the offender before the court; or

the court considers that remanding (or further remanding) him will enable information to be obtained which is likely to assist the court in deciding whether and, if so, how to exercise its powers under paragraph 5(1) above.

Where the offender is aged 18 or over at the time when he is brought before a youth court other than F21the relevant court under sub-paragraph (4)(b) above, or is aged 18 or over at a time when (apart from this sub-paragraph) F21the relevant court could exercise its powers under sub-paragraph (6) above in respect of him, he shall not be remanded to local authority accommodation but may instead be remanded—
