CRIMES (SENTENCE ADMINISTRATION) ACT 2005 (NO. 59 OF 2005) - SECT 284

Community-based sentence transfer—effect of interstate registration

    (1)     If the local sentence is registered in the interstate jurisdiction, the following provisions have effect:

        (a)     the sentence becomes a community-based sentence in force in the interstate jurisdiction, and ceases to be a community-based sentence in force in this jurisdiction;

        (b)     the offender may be dealt with in the interstate jurisdiction for a breach of the sentence, whether the breach happened before or after the registration of the sentence;

        (c)     if the sentence is registered in the local register—the sentence ceases to be registered.

    (2)     If this jurisdiction is the originating jurisdiction for the local sentence, this section does not affect any right of appeal or review (however described) in relation to—

        (a)     the conviction or finding of guilt on which the sentence was based; or

        (b)     the imposition of the sentence.

    (3)     To remove any doubt, this section does not prevent the local sentence from later being registered in this jurisdiction.
