Western Australian Current Acts Western Australian Current Acts (1) The purpose of a
supervision requirement is to allow for the offender to be regularly monitored
in the community, and to receive regular counselling, in a way and to an
extent decided by a CCO, for the purpose of either or both —
(a)
rehabilitating the offender;
(b)
ensuring the offender complies with any direction given by the court when
imposing the requirement.
(2) The supervision
requirement is a requirement that the offender must contact a CCO, or receive
visits from a CCO, as ordered by a CCO.
(3) When imposing a
supervision requirement, a court may give any directions it decides are
necessary to secure the good behaviour of the offender but the court is not to
make a direction —
(a) the
effect of which could be achieved by imposing a programme requirement; or
(b) that
requires the offender to pay compensation or make restitution to any person.
(4) Unless a CCO
orders otherwise, while the offender is subject to a supervision requirement
the offender must contact a CCO at least once in any period of 28 days.
(5) If the offender
does not comply with subsection (4), the offender is to be taken to have
breached the supervision requirement.
(6) A supervision
requirement ceases to be in force when the suspension period ends.
(7) Subsection (3)(b)
does not prevent a court from making a reparation order under Part 16.
