    The habeas application must be dismissed because the detention is authorised by a valid Youth Court remand order under the CYPFA and s14(2)(b) of the Habeas Corpus Act confines the Court's inquiry into bail rulings; statutory remedies (daily Youth Court review, s241 review, appeal, and judicial review) are the appropriate means to challenge the detention and the application is therefore misconceived or an abuse of process.
