Australian Capital Territory Numbered Acts Australian Capital Territory Numbered Acts(1) An offender is taken, during a period, to be serving the sentence of imprisonment for which parole was granted if—
(a) the offender is taken into lawful custody during the period while on parole; and
(b) the custody is only in relation to the offender's parole obligations.
Example of custody in relation to parole obligations
a period during which the offender is remanded in custody under s 144 (Arrest without warrant—breach of parole obligations)
Note An example is part of the Act, is not exhaustive and may extend, but does not limit, the meaning of the provision in which it appears (see Legislation Act, s 126 and s 132).
(2) To remove any doubt, the offender is not taken to be serving the sentence of imprisonment for which the parole was granted if the reason for the custody is, or includes, anything other than the offender's parole obligations.
Example of other reason for custody
nonpayment of a fine or other amount (including restitution) under a court order
