Section 7

Where a detention order is suspended as aforesaid, subsection 6(6) shall have effect as if the restrictions and conditions on which the detention order is suspended were restrictions and conditions imposed by a restriction order.

The Minister may revoke the suspension of any detention order if he is satisfied that the person against whom the detention order was made has failed to observe any restriction or condition imposed upon him or that it is necessary in the interest of public order that the suspension should be revoked, and in any such case the revocation of the suspension shall be sufficient authority to any police officer to re-arrest without warrant the person against whom the detention order was made, and that person shall as soon as practicable be returned to his former place of detention or, if the Minister so directs, sent to another place of detention.

The suspension of any detention order as aforesaid shall, subject to subsection 6(6) as applied by subsection (2) and subject also to subsection (3), continue in force for the unexpired portion of the period of the detention order specified under subsection 6(1) or under subsection 11A(1).
