(1)The Court may make an interim supervision order, either of its own motion or on application by any person—(a)where the Court has reason to believe that the living conditions of the child concerned require that an interim order be made pending the submission of a welfare report prepared in accordance with section 136(3);(b)on adjournment of an application for a supervision order; or(c)upon the making of orders for the assessment of the child under section 135.(2)An interim order made under this section shall not remain in force for a period exceeding two months, unless the Court extends the order for such other period as the Court considers necessary in the best interest of the child.
