YOUNG OFFENDERS ACT 1994 - SECT 101

101 .         Order with custodial sentence (conditional release order)

        (1)         If an intensive youth supervision order is made and a sentence of detention is imposed, the intensive youth supervision order is referred to in this Act as a conditional release order.

        (2)         If the court makes a conditional release order, the offender is to be released from detention under the sentence as soon as the sentence would have commenced if there were no conditional release order.

        (3)         Time during which the offender is released under the order does not count as time for which the offender is serving the term of detention.

        (4)         The offender only becomes liable to serve the term of detention, or a portion of it, if the order is cancelled.
