If, the court considers it necessary or advisable to postpone the commencement of or to adjourn the inquiry, the court may, from time to time by warrant, remand the accused for a reasonable time, not exceeding eight clear days at any one time, to some prison or other place of security; or, if the remand is not for more than three days, the court may, by word of mouth, order the officer or person in whose custody the accused person is, or any other fit officer or person, to continue to keep the accused in that person's custody, and to bring the accused up at the time appointed for the commencement or continuance of the inquiry.
During a remand the court may, at any time, order the accused to be brought before it and, subject to section 29 may, on a remand at any time, admit the accused to bail: Provided that the court shall grant no remand or sequence of remands exceeding in all fifteen clear days, otherwise than at the request of or with the consent of the prosecutor.
