SENTENCE ADMINISTRATION ACT 1995 - SECT 34

34 .         CEO to ensure parolee is supervised

        (1)         The CEO must ensure that a CCO is assigned to supervise a prisoner while on parole.

        (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 such a recommendation, the Board may direct the CEO that the prisoner need not be supervised while on parole 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.

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