CAP. 141 Children [Rev. 2012] . 192. Mental treatment If it appears to the court on the evidence of a medical practitioner that a child requires or may benefit from mental treatment, the court when making a probation order against him, may require him to undergo mental treatment at the hand or under the direction of a medical practitioner for a period not exceeding twelve months, subject to review by the court, as a condition of the probation order. 193. Power to order parent to pay fines, etc. (1) Where a child is charged with an offence for which a fine, compensation or costs may be imposed, if the court is of the opinion that the case would best be met by imposition of a fine, compensation or costs, whether with or without any other punishment, the court may in any case order that the fine, compensation or costs imposed or awarded be paid by the child’s parent or guardian instead of by the offender, unless the court is satisfied that the parent or guardian cannot be found or that he or she has not induced the commission of the offence, by neglecting to exercise due care of the offender. (2) Where a child is charged with an offence, the court may order his parent or guardian to give security for his good behaviour.

(4) Any sums imposed and ordered to be paid by a parent or guardian under this section, or forfeiture of any such security as aforesaid, may be recovered from him or her in a like manner as if the order had been made on the conviction of the parent or guardian of the offender. (5) A parent or guardian may appeal to the High Court against an order made under this section by a Children’s Court. 194.
