62.1. When the tribunal orders that the child be entrusted to an alternative living environment, the director may authorize the child to stay, for periods of not more than 15 days, with his father or mother or either of his parents, with a person who is important to the child, in particular his grandparents or other members of the extended family, with a foster family or within a body, provided those stays are in keeping with the intervention plan and respect the interest of the child.
With a view to preparing the child’s return to his family or social environment, the director or a person authorized by the director under section 32 may authorize the child to stay with his father or mother or either of his parents, with a person who is important to the child, with a foster family or within a body for extended periods during the last 60 days of the order entrusting the child to an alternative living environment.
With a view to preparing the child for the transition to adulthood, the director or the person so authorized may, in the last six months of such an order ending when the child reaches the age of majority, authorize the child to stay for extended periods in an environment referred to in the second paragraph or in another environment provided for in the intervention plan.
