The correct statutory form for ordering admission of a person found under a disability is an order under section 76(2) of the Criminal Procedure Ordinance; such an order obviates the necessity for the court to specify a detention period because Schedule 4 permits detention in accordance with section 45 of the Mental Health Ordinance, and the Court may correct the judge's inadvertent formal error by remaking the order in the proper form.
