This section applies where, at any time while a curfew order is in force in respect of a convicted person, a court is satisfied that the convicted person proposes to change, or has changed, his residence.
Subject to subsection (3), the court may and, on the application of the responsible officer shall, amend the relevant order by substituting another area for the area specified in the order or a place in that other area for the place so specified.
The court shall not amend under this section a curfew order which contains requirements which, in the opinion of the court, cannot be complied with unless the convicted person continues to reside in the area concerned unless, in accordance with section 9, it either —
cancels those requirements; or
substitutes for those requirements other requirements which can be complied with if the convicted person ceases to reside in that area.
