has effect for the period specified in the order, beginning with the date on which it is made.

If the FRO is made under section 21(1), the period referred to in subsection (1)(b) must not exceed 5 years.

The fact that an FRO ceases to be in force does not prevent the court which first made the FRO from making a new FRO to the same or similar effect.
