84 Detention orders ordinarily concurrent
If, at the time the Court makes a detention order against a youth for an offence, the youth is serving or has been sentenced to serve a period of detention for another offence, the period of detention under the detention order must be served concurrently with the other period of detention, unless other provision is made under section 85 or another Act.
