150: Duration of enforcement order

You could also call this:

"How long an enforcement order lasts"

An enforcement order can be temporary or final. A temporary order lasts until it becomes a final order as explained in section 148, or until it is discharged under section 151. You can find out more about when an order is discharged by looking at section 151.

A final enforcement order stays in place until it is discharged under section 151. This means you need to follow the order until a decision is made to discharge it. You can learn more about discharging an order by reading section 151.
