Supervising Court.
(2)
The Supervising Court before whom a child is brought under paragraph (1)(b) may amend the order made under section 46—

upon proof that the circumstances under which the order was made have changed after the making of the order, and a copy of the amending order shall be given to the Court For
Children in which the order was made under section 46.
