(1)In this Act “admission order” means an order that the person in respect of whom it is made be admitted, in accordance with regulations under subsection (3) below, to such hospital as may be specified by the Secretary of State.

(2)Where an admission order is made by a court-martial, the court may, in such circumstances as may be prescribed, direct the accused to be treated as if an order restricting his discharge had been made under the appropriate mental health legislation, either without limit of time or (if a civil court would have been permitted to do so under the legislation concerned) during such period as may be specified in the direction.

(3)The Secretary of State may by regulations make provision with respect to the admission to, detention in, and release from, hospital of any person in respect of whom an admission order has been made.

(4)Regulations under subsection (3) above may in particular make provision—

(a)for a person in respect of whom an admission order has been made to be conveyed to, and detained in, a place of safety pending his admission to the hospital;

(b)for the period within which such a person is to be admitted to the hospital;

(c)for the appropriate mental health legislation to apply, with such modifications as may be prescribed, in relation to admission orders as the legislation concerned applies in relation to hospital orders;

(d)for a person in respect of whom an admission order has been made to be remitted for trial in such circumstances as may be prescribed.

(5)In this section “hospital”, “hospital order” and “place of safety” have the same meanings as in the appropriate mental health legislation.]
