[F1(1)If it appears to a chief officer of police or [F2a director of social services of a local authority] [F2a director of children’s services of a local authority in England or a director of social services of a local authority in Wales] that the conditions set out in subsection (2) are satisfied in the case of an individual, the chief officer or (as the case may be) the director may apply to the High Court for an order under this section to be made in respect of the individual.

(2)The conditions are that—

(a)a disqualification order made in respect of the individual is no longer in force, and

(3)An application under this section may be made at any time after the disqualification order ceased to be in force.

(4)If the High Court is satisfied that the conditions set out in subsection (2) are satisfied, it must order that the disqualification order is to be restored; otherwise it must dismiss the application.

(5)Where an order is made under this section, section 33 has effect with the following modifications—

(a)in subsection (3), the reference to the individual being under the age of 18 when he committed the offence against a child is to be read as a reference to his being under that age when the order under this section was made,

(b)in subsections (3)(a) and (4)(a), references to the relevant date are to be read as references to the date on which the order under this section was made,

(c)in subsection (5)(a), the reference to the individual’s circumstances changing since the disqualification order was made is to be read as a reference to his circumstances changing since the order under this section was made.
