17G Community service work conditions under multiple orders

(1) A relevant order (the
"new order" ) may not be made if the sum of--

(a) the number of hours of community service work to be performed under the new order, and

(b) the number of hours of community service work remaining to be performed under any other relevant order (an
"existing order" ),

exceeds 750 hours (if any one of the orders is an intensive correction order) or 500 hours (if all the orders are community correction orders).

Note--: Community service work conditions can be imposed on intensive correction orders and community correction orders, but cannot be imposed on conditional release orders.

(2) In calculating the sum referred to in subsection (1), the hours of community service work to be performed under the new order are to be disregarded to the extent to which they run concurrently with those to be performed under any existing order.

(3) The hours of community service work to be performed under the new order are taken to run concurrently with those to be performed under any existing order.
