(1) An entity prescribed by regulation for this section must give a registrable offender a reporting obligations notice as soon as practicable, but no later than 14 days after the day any of the following events happen:
(a) the offender is sentenced for a registrable offence;
(b) the offender is released from government custody (whether or not the person was in government custody for a registrable offence);
(c) the offender enters the ACT, and remains in the ACT for 7 days, if the offender has not previously been given notice of the offender's reporting obligations in the ACT;
(d) the offender becomes a prescribed corresponding offender, if the offender is in the ACT at the time.
(2) An entity is not required to give a reporting obligations notice if the notice has been given by someone else.
(3) Despite anything in this part, a regulation may provide that a reporting obligations notice is not required to state the registrable offender's reporting period if the regulation requires a notice containing that information to be given when the offender reports the offender's personal details in person under this chapter.
