59 .         CEO to ensure prisoner is supervised during RRO

        (1)         The CEO must ensure that during the period of an RRO a CCO is assigned to supervise the prisoner.

        (2)         However, if at any time the CEO is satisfied that —

            (a)         the prisoner is complying with his or her undertaking in a satisfactory manner; and

            (b)         the risk of the prisoner re-offending if not subject to supervision by a CCO is minimal,

                the CEO may recommend to the Board that the prisoner no longer be supervised by a CCO.

        (3)         If the CEO makes a recommendation under subsection (2), the Board may direct the CEO that the prisoner need no longer be supervised during the period of the RRO and the CEO may cease the supervision of the prisoner.

        (4)         If the CEO ceases the supervision of a prisoner the CEO is to inform the prisoner.

        (5)         The fact that a prisoner ceases to be under supervision does not affect the prisoner’s duty to obey the requirements of his or her undertaking during the period of the RRO.

        (6)         The Board may at any time cancel a direction given to the CEO under subsection (3).
