In support of Senator White's amendment, there is reference in subsection (10) to the order. However, the language, "entitled to be released immediately upon payment by him or her ... of the sum of money consisting of the amount of all instalments of the debt and costs which have accrued before, and are unpaid at the date of such order" does not specify the amounts which are the subject of the order. I believe there is ambiguity there. One could argue it is implicit, but for the sake of clarity it should be specified, perhaps, as Senator White has suggested.
