Australian Capital Territory Consolidated Acts(1) This section applies if the court fails to set, or fails to set properly, a nonparole period for a sentence of imprisonment.
(2) The court may set a nonparole period on the application of any of the following people:
(a) the Attorney-General;
(b) the director of public prosecutions;
(c) the secretary of the sentence administration board;
(d) the offender.
(3) To remove any doubt, this section does not apply in relation to a period of full-time detention that is consequent on the suspension or cancellation of a periodic detention period.
Note If an offender's periodic detention period is suspended or
cancelled, the suspended part or the remainder of the sentence of periodic
detention must be served by full-time detention (see Crimes (Sentence
Administration) Act 2005 , s 79).
