CRIMES (SENTENCE ADMINISTRATION) ACT 2005 - SECT 60

Arrest without warrant—breach of intensive correction order obligations

    (1)     This section applies if a police officer believes on reasonable grounds that an offender has breached any of the offender's intensive correction order obligations.

    (2)     The police officer may arrest the offender without a warrant.

    (3)     A police officer who arrests an offender under this section must, as soon as practicable, bring the offender before—

        (a)     the board; or

        (b)     if section 65 would apply because of the breach—the sentencing court.

    (4)     However, if the board or sentencing court is not sitting, the police officer must, as soon as practicable, bring the offender before a magistrate for a decision in relation to bail until the offender can be brought before the board or sentencing court.

Note     For remanding or granting bail to the offender, see the Bail Act 1992
