(a) each sentence of imprisonment to which the parolee was subject immediately before the making of the parole order had been imposed by the appropriate ACT court; and
(b) each period of imprisonment served by the parolee for the purpose of such a sentence had been served for the purpose of a sentence imposed by the appropriate ACT court; and
(c) the parole order had been made and were in force under this chapter.

(b) in any other case—the Supreme Court.
(4) If a parole order registered under section 167 is cancelled under this chapter, the parolee is liable to serve a period of imprisonment by full-time detention equal to the period of imprisonment the parolee was liable to serve under the sentence on the parole release date for the sentence.
