CRIMINAL LAW CONSOLIDATION ACT 1935 - SECT 269U

269U—Revision of supervision orders

        (1)         If a person who has been released on licence under this Subdivision contravenes or is likely to contravene a condition of the licence, the court by which the supervision order was made may, on application by the Crown (which may be made, in a case of urgency, by telephone), review the supervision order.

        (1a)         On an application for a review being made, the court may make an interim order in such terms as the court thinks appropriate in the circumstances, including an order that the person be detained in a specified place for a specified period pending the determination of the review.

        (2)         After allowing the Crown and the person subject to the order a reasonable opportunity to be heard on the application for review, the court may do 1 or more of the following:

            (a)         confirm the present terms of the supervision order;

            (b)         amend the order so that it ceases to provide for release on licence and provides instead for detention;

            (c)         amend the order by varying the conditions of the licence;

            (d)         make any further order or direction that may be appropriate in the circumstances.

        (3)         When an application for review of a supervision order is made, the court may issue a warrant to have the person subject to the order arrested and brought before the court and may, if appropriate, make orders for detention of that person until the application is determined.
