        (b)     provide for the acceptance of, and means of dealing with, the young offender in the receiving State; and

        (c)     specify each order of a court of the sending State to which the young offender is subject (including any order required by a previous arrangement with the Territory or with a State to be treated as having been made by a court of the sending State).

(2)     For each order so specified, the arrangement shall—

        (a)     state the way in which it is to operate in the receiving State, which shall be as similar as possible to the way in which it would operate in the sending State if the arrangement were not made;

        (c)     state any entitlement of the young offender to a reduction in detention in the sending State and how that entitlement is to operate in the receiving State, which shall be as similar as possible to the way in which it would operate in the sending State if the arrangement were not made; and

        (d)     state that a young offender who is subject to a nonprobation period may be treated as being subject to an equivalent nonparole period, if the laws of the receiving State do not provide for nonprobation periods.

(3)     A reference in this section to an order of a court shall be read as a reference to any sentence, detention, probation, parole or other order, which could be made or imposed by such a court.
