Western Australian Current Acts Western Australian Current Acts (1) When the special
order begins to run the offender is to remain in custody in prison or a
detention centre, as the case may be, and is liable to serve a sentence of 18
months imprisonment or detention under the special order.
(2) After serving 12
months’ imprisonment or detention under the special order the offender
may be released under a supervised release order.
(3) This section
applies despite anything in this Act or any other written law.
(4) Where the offender
is released from prison under subsection (2), the completion of the term of
the supervised release order has the same effect in relation to the sentence
under the special order as it would have under Part 8 if the offender had been
released from detention in a detention centre.
