State Act
Section 45. Power of the Government to discharge and transfer children.
This Act was repealed on a date we do not have by Central Act 53 of 1986 (as printed under the copy's title); it may still apply to matters that began before then.
45. Power of the Government to discharge and transfer children.—(1) The Government may, notwithstanding anything contained in this Act, at any time, order a neglected or delinquent child to be discharged from the children's home or special school either absolutely or on such conditions as the Government may think fit to impose. (2) The Government may, notwithstanding anything contained in this Act, order— (a) a neglected child to be transferred from one children's home to another; (b) a delinquent child to be transferred from one special school to another, or from a special school to a borstal school, or from a special school to a children's home ; (c) a child who has been released on licence which has been revoked or forfeited, to be sent to the special school or children's home from which he was released or to any other special school or children's home or borstal school : Provided that the total period of the stay of the child in a special school or children's home shall not be increased by such transfer. (3) The Government may, notwithstanding anything contained in this Act, at any time, discharge a child from the care of any person under whom he was placed under this Act, either absolutely or on such conditions as the Government may think fit to impose.
