This section applies to a person who— has a dual disability; and is subject to a forensic order (mental health).

For subsection (4) , the forensic order (disability) is taken to have been made when the forensic order (mental health) was made. The revocation of the forensic order (mental health) under this section does not affect any recommendation made by the court under section 136 .
